This celebratory book provides a broad and nuanced appreciation of the achievements and legacy of Professor William (“Bill”) Goddard in the field of computational materials and molecular science. Leading researchers from around the globe discuss Goddard’s work and lasting impact through their latest developments in today’s cutting-edge chemistry, materials science, and biology. Each section of the book closes with a forward-looking perspective piece outlining prospects for future developments.
Over a career now spanning more than 50 years, Goddard’s seminal contributions to the theory and the application of theory and computation to the materials and chemical sciences have led to dramatic advances in a diverse range fields within science and engineering. In scientific essays and personal reflections, students, postdoctoral associates, collaborators, and colleagues discuss the private and scientific impact of one of the world’s greatest materials and molecular scientists through to the present day. Reflecting Goddard’s key contributions to theory, experiment, and applications, the book presents his legacy in each area from conceptualization (first mile) to developments and extensions aimed at applications and finally to de novo design (last mile). Goddard’s passion for science, his insights, and his ability to actively engage with his collaborators in bold initiatives is a model for us all. As he enters his second half-century of scientific research and education, it is hoped that this book will inspire future generations of students and researchers to employ and extend these powerful techniques and insights toward the solution of today’s critical problems in biology, chemistry, and materials.
Examples highlighted in this book include new materials for photocatalysts to convert water and CO2 to fuels, new catalysts for highly selective and active catalysis of alkanes to valuable organics, simulating the chemistry in film growth to develop two-dimensional functional films, predictions of ligand–protein binding and activation to enable design of selective drugs with minimal side effects.Get Computational Materials, Chemistry, and Biochemistry: From Bold Initiatives to the Last Mile by at the best price and quality guranteed only at Werezi Africa largest book ecommerce store.
