Description
Unangefochten die Nummer eins: Dieses in seiner Form einzigartige Verzeichnis der molekularen Deskriptoren wurde fr die Neuauflage aktualisiert und deutlich erweitert. Band 1 beinhaltet eine alphabetische Liste von mehr als 1500 (100 neu) Deskriptoren und Termen fr die cheminformatische Analyse der Eigenschaften von Verbindungen, Band 2 bietet mehr als 6000 (3000 neu) Literaturverweise, ausgewhlt aus 250 Zeitschriften. Um das Verstndnis der Daten zu erleichtern, wurde die Einleitung neu formuliert und um Stichworterklrungen fr Neueinsteiger ergnzt. Roberto Todeschini is full professor of chemometrics at the Department of Environmental Sciences of the University of Milano-Bicocca (Milano, Italy), where he constituted the Milano Chemometrics and QSAR Research Group. His main research activities concern chemometrics in all its aspects, QSAR, molecular descriptors, multicriteria decision making, and software development. President of the International Academy of Mathematical Chemistry, president of the Italian Chemometric Society and honorary professor of the University of Azuay (Cuenca, Ecuador), he is author of more than 160 publications in international journals and of two books: “The Data Analysis Handbook”, by I. E. Frank and R. Todeschini; 1994 and “Handbook of Molecular Descriptors”, by R. Todeschini and V. Consonni; Wiley-VCH, 2000. Viviana Consonni completed her PhD in Chemical Sciences at the University of Milano in 2000 and is now full researcher of chemometrics at the Department of Environmental Sciences of the University of Milano-Bicocca (Milano, Italy). She is a member of the Milano Chemometrics and QSAR Research Group and has 10 years experience in multivariate analysis, QSAR, molecular descriptors, multi-criteria decision-making, and software development. She is author of more than 25 publications in peer reviewed journals and of the book “Handbook of Molecular Descriptors”, by R. Todeschini and V. Consonni; Wiley-VCH, 2000. In 2006 she obtained the International Academy of Mathematical Chemistry Award for distinguished young researchers.
