A fascinating account which discusses the indigenous peoples at the Cape at the time of the Dutch colonisers' arrival through to the years of apartheid. This includes the colonial conquest of Zambia expanding upon the role played by venture capital and the demands of manufacturing capitalism in the colonisation of large parts of Africa. The place of women in both colonial settler society and indigenous society is also dealt with. Through all the chapters runs the thread of the lives of the common people, and how their interactions are circumscribed by social conditions.

Quantum Mechanics in Chemistry combines both introductory and modern q uantum chemistry in a single volume. Unlike similar books, which conce ntrate on quantum physics and provide only brief examples of chemical applications, this unique work focuses on the topics a chemist needs t o know. It provides an introduction to the fundamentals of quantum mec hanics as they apply to chemistry, then moves on to the more modern as pects of the field, which are very important in industry and are not e mphasized in any other book. It also includes introductions to molecul ar spectroscopy, chemical...

The development and computational implementation of analytical expres sions for the low-order derivatives of electronic energy surfaces and other molecular properties has undergone rapid growth in recent years. It is now fairly routine for chemists to make use of energy gradient information in locating and identifying stable geometries and transition states. The use of second analytical derivative (Hessian or curvature) expressions is not yet routine, and third and higher energy derivatives as well as property (e.g., dipole moment, polarizability) derivatives are just beginning to be applied...
