The renowned theoretical physicist Victor F. Weisskopf rightly
pointed out that a real understanding of natural phenomena implies
a clear distinction between the essential and the peripheral. Only
when we reach such an understanding - that is to say when we are
able to separate the relevant from the irrelevant, will the
phenomena no longer appear complex, but intelectually transparent.
This statement, which is generally valid, reflects the very essence
ofmodelling in the quantum theory of matter, on the molecular level
in particular. Indeed, without theoretical models one would be
swamped by too many details embodied in intricate accurate
molecular wavefunctions. Further, physically justified
simplificqtions enable studies of the otherwise intractable systems
and/or phenomena. Finally, a lack of appropriate models would leave
myriads of raw experimental data totally unrelated and
incomprehensible. The present series ofbooks dwells on the most
important models of chemical bonding and on the variety of its
manifestations. In this volume the electronic structure and
properties of molecules are considered in depth. Particular
attention is focused on the nature of intramolecular interactions
which in turn are revealed by various types ofmolecular
spectroscopy. Emphasis is put on the conceptual and interpretive
aspects of the theory in line with the general philosophy adopted
in the series."
