Van der Waals Forces: A Handbook for Biologists, Chemists, Engineers, and Physicists
Van der Waals Forces: A Handbook for Biologists, Chemists, Engineers, and Physicists Books
Product Description
This should prove to be the definitive work explaining van der Waals forces, how to estimate them and take account of their impact below any circumstances and conditions. These weak intermolecular forces are of truly pervasive impact, and biologists, chemists, physicists, and engineers will profit greatly from the thorough grounding in these fundamental forces. Parsegian has organized his book at three successive levels of mathematical sophistication, to satisfy the needs and interests of readers at all levels of preparation. The Preface and Level 1 are proposed to give everyone an overview in words and pictures of the modern theory of van der Waals forces. Level 2 gives the formulae and a wide range of algorithms to let readers compute the van der Waals forces below effectively any corporal or physiological conditions. Level 3 offers a rigorous basic formulation of the theory.

This book is the best ever written about Van der Waals forces. Parsegian is the world’s expert on this theme, which is essential for an understanding of corporal biology and much of chemistry, engineering, and physics. Parsegian writes superbly and clearly. His book is fun to read. Every biologist and every biophysicist should get a copy. Every science library should have at least two copies of this book.
Rating: 5 / 5
I teach courses covering the fundamentals of surface and colloid engineering. The Parsegian textbook is ideal for either teaching a segment of 6 to 9 lectures or teaching an entire course on Van der Waals forces – I have done both. Moreover, there is also advanced material included that is vital for applications that range from biomembrane physics to wetting phenomena. Even the price is aptly!
This is an brilliant book in every way.
