… now for the first time we have a comprehensive encyclopedia of this discipline …The editors-in-chief John Moore and Nicholas Spencer not only faced this marathon challenge but solved the problem with style … This balancing act between traditional and ultramodern physical chemistry succeeds … The cross-references excite the reader's interest and stimulates him or her to examine other volumes or topics … University libraries are strongly recommended to buy this encyclopedia, and all research groups working in the field should add this three-volume work to their reference books.
… a long and considerable effort has clearly been spent in compiling it … The encyclopedia is the best single source that I know of for getting a modern view of chemical physics and physical chemistry.
