Molecules of Murder is about infamous murderers and famous victims. Few books on poisons analyse these crimes from the viewpoint of the poison itself, but doing so throws a new light on how the murders or attempted murders were carried out and ultimately how the perpetrators were uncovered and brought to justice. Part I includes molecules which occur naturally and were originally used by doctors before becoming notorious as murder weapons. Part II deals with unnatural molecules, mainly man-made, and they too have been dangerously misused in famous crimes. The book ends with the most famous poi

The books in this series are designed for junior undergraduates and diploma students in all biological sciences. They cover the field of modern biochemistry, integrating animal, plant and microbial topics. Each chapter is prefaced by a list of learning objectives, with short summaries, revision aids and end-of-chapter questions. This volume comprises an introduction to the biochemistry of macromolecules.

This volume contains data on the geometric parameters (internuclear distances, bond angles, dihedral angles of internal rotation etc.) of free polyatomic molecules including free radicals and molecular ions. This survey on structure data is made of four subvolume, each containing the geometric parameters determined in the gas phase either by an analysis of the rotational constants (and sometimes the vibrational constants) obtained from microwave, infrared, Raman, electronic and photoelectron spectroscopy or by an analysis of electron diffraction intensities. Most of the structures listed in th

An understanding of the collisions between micro particles is of great importance for the number of fields belonging to physics, chemistry, astrophysics, biophysics etc. The present book, a theory for electron-atom and molecule collisions is developed using non-relativistic quantum mechanics in a systematic and lucid manner. The scattering theory is an essential part of the quantum mechanics course of all universities. During the last 30 years, the author has lectured on the topics presented in this book (collisions physics, photon-atom collisions, electron-atom and electron-molecule

Giving a broad view of biological evolution the topics discussed here range from the history of the development of evolutionary thought, through current problems in molecular evolution and the evolution of whole organisms, to evolution of behaviour, sociobiology and man’s place in evolution.

This book has been developed over many years from several popular courses taught to students at both Birmingham and London universities. It provides an important step in introducing principles and concepts within the field of toxicology. The underlying mechanisms of toxicity are highlighted through examples taken from gases, minerals, plants, fungi, bacteria, marine creatures, industrial chemicals and pharmacological agents. In this second edition, the text has been completely revised and expanded with the addition of six new chapters carbon monoxide, hydrofluoric acid, lead, mushroom, to
