  Living matter: algebra of molecules
Buchatsky L., Stcherbic V., CRC Press, Inc., Boca Raton, FL, 2015. 176 pp.  Type: Book (978-1-498741-37-8)

There is a famous quote from J. B. S. Haldane: “An ounce of algebra is worth a ton of verbal argument.” This is indeed true. Algebra is a powerful tool for understanding many unknowns. In particular, Clifford algebr...

  Molecular structures and structural dynamics of prion proteins and prions: mechanism underlying the resistance to prion diseases
Zhang J., Springer International Publishing, New York, NY, 2015. 355 pp.  Type: Book (978-9-401773-17-1)

Unlike bacteria and viruses, which are based on DNA and RNA, prions are unique as disease-causing agents since they are misfolded proteins. Prions propagate by deforming harmless, correctly folded proteins into copies of themselves. Th...

  Large-scale quantum-mechanical enzymology
Lever G., Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated, New York, NY, 2015. 148 pp.  Type: Book (978-3-319193-50-2)

The confirmation of atomic theory in the early 1900s, and the creation of quantum mechanics as a way to explain subsequent experimental results at the atomic level, have led to a merging of chemistry and physics at that level. Chemists...

  Visible, less visible, and invisible work: patterns of collaboration in 20th century chemistry
Cronin B., Shaw D., La Barre K. Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology 55(2): 160-168, 2004.  Type: Article

“We recently published the results of a ... study of acknowledgment and coauthorship trends in 20th century psychology and philosophy [1]. The present paper describes the findings of a follow-on survey of chemistry. The metho...

  Computational chemistry using the PC (3rd ed.)
Rogers D., John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, NY, 2003. 288 pp.  Type: Book (9780471428008)

Although it has taken a long time, computational chemistry is now recognized as a subdiscipline of chemistry. It has shown its usefulness in applications including drug design, interpretation of spectra, analysis of reaction mechanisms...

  Identification of contaminants in proteomics mass spectrometry data
Duncan M., Fung K., Wang H., C ., Cios K.  Bioinformatics (Proceedings of the IEEE Computer Society Conference on Bioinformatics,Aug 11-14, 2003) 4092003.  Type: Proceedings

This very condensed paper is intended for specialists in mass spectrometry. It focuses on the automatic detection of contaminant masses. The number of contaminants may be small relative to the total number of peptides analyzed, but aut...

  The role of electronic preprints in chemical communication: analysis of citation, usage, and acceptance in the journal literature
Brown C. Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology 54(5): 362-371, 2003.  Type: Article

This paper is a companion to an earlier report on the role of electronic preprints in physics and astronomy [1]. Brown reports a lesser degree of use of electronic preprints by chemists than by physicists and astronomers. However, the ...

  Mathematica computer programs for physical chemistry
Cropper W., Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., Secaucus, NJ, 1998.  Type: Book (9780387983370)

The introduction to this book states that it is “not itself a text,” which is quite true. Readers will not learn physical chemistry by reading this book alone. Rather, it is meant as a companion to a physical chemis...

  Practical curve fitting and data analysis
Noggle J., Ellis Horwood, Upper Saddle River, NJ, 1993.  Type: Book (9780136773948)

As is stated on the back cover, this work “offers chemists, chemical engineers, and analytical scientists” a software tool, EZFIT, for curve fitting and data analysis, and demonstrates correct use of this program fo...
