Rating: Summary: I am very afraid Review: In 1990 VCH Publishers, New York, etc. had published a book which is apparently the same, as this book: R.D. Rogers, "Computational Chemistry Using the P.C.", although now there is the name of another publisher. Some two years later I was asked by one of the scientific journals in the field to write a review about it. However, from not very clear reasons (or too clear ones: the publisher of the book and of the journal were the same) it was not printed there. Finally, my book review appeared in a special issue devoted to mathematical and computational chemistry of the journal Croatica Chemica Acta (vol. 66, issue 1, pp A1-A2). I wish not repeat all my criticism expressed there - there were serious problems with the basic notions of quantum mechanics and even freshman's math - only quote my conclusion: "Keep it out of reach of the students".
