✦ Synopsis

This book evolved from an interdisciplinary graduate course entitled 'Molecular Modeling' developed at New York University. Its primary goal is to stimulate excitement for molecular modeling research while providing grounding in the discipline. Scientists who wish to enter, or become familiar with, the field of biomolecular modeling and simulation may benefit from the broad coverage of problems and approaches.
