About this book

It is essential for modern students of molecular behavior to understand the statistical/chemical physics at the heart of modern molecular science. But traditional presentations of this material are often difficult to penetrate. This volume brings "down to earth" some of the most intimidating but important theories of molecular biophysics. Students build understanding by focusing on topics such as probability theory, low-dimensional models, and the simplest molecular systems. The book's accessible development of equilibrium and dynamical statistical physics makes this a valuable text for students with limited physics and chemistry backgrounds.
