'This book could appeal to astronomers interested in interstellar
and circumstellar matter who would like to know more about the
processes in them from a chemistaEURO (TM)s perspective in a modern
textbook. Overall, I found this book very informative and clearly
written ...'The Observatory MagazineThe rapidly growing field of
astrochemistry focuses on the chemistry occurring in stars,
planets, and the interstellar medium, bringing together elements of
chemistry, physics, astrophysics, and biology. Astrochemistry
describes the chemical history of the Universe, our solar system,
and our planet. It explores in some detail the 'alien' chemistry
occurring in interstellar gas clouds, the regions where stars and
planets are formed, and also looks at the theoretical and
experimental methods that allow us to carry out Earth-based studies
of astrochemistry.The evolution of the Universe and the complex
chemistry occurring both in interstellar space and in the planetary
systems that form in these regions is explained primarily in terms
of basic principles of physical chemistry. While there is plenty to
interest the general reader, this book is aimed at intermediate to
advanced undergraduates of chemistry and astrochemistry,
highlighting many different aspects of physical chemistry and
demonstrating their relevance to the world we live in.This book was
written in conjunction with Atmospheric Chemistry: From the Surface
to the Stratosphere, Grant Ritchie (2017) World Scientific
Publishing.
