Abstract
Introduction to Molecular Symmetry first looks at symmetry elements, symmetry operations, and point groups. The next chapter examines matrices, multiplication tables, and representations. The text then covers the reduction formula, matrices and representations in higher order point groups, and molecular vibrations. The next chapter is about vibrational spectroscopy. The last chapter covers symmetry aspects of chemical bonding.
