Symmetry Theory in Molecular Physics with Mathematica : A new kind of tutorial book

Prof. McClain has indeed produced "a new kind of tutorial book." It is written using the logic engine Mathematica, which permits concrete exploration and development of every concept involved in Symmetry Theory. The book may be read in your hand, or on a computer screen with Mathematica ru...
