A new area is emerging in Chemistry for debate and discussion on molecular structure and bonding of molecules of different types in which the role of symmetry is most vital. The two elegant parts of Mathematics—Group and Matrix—have drawn special attention on the key subject of symmetry. Three mathematical branches— Symmetry, Groups and Matrices—have been selected to develop a new text on Chemistry that has witnessed growth up to Buck Minister Fullerenes, Carbon-60 with Ih point group. The first part of series on Chemical Mathematics is based on the model proposed by Prof. H.M. Chawla, an IITian from Delhi. It is a well-distinguished approach to an important ingredient of Physical Science apart from Physics. Efforts have been made to formulate a complete course structure on Group Theory and Chemistry. The second part of the series on Chemical Mathematics has laid the foundation of Quantum Chemistry (Quantum Mechanics in the Domain of Molecular World). This series exhibits a continuum on bringing the relevant books for Honours and Postgraduate level in the universities of the Indian subcontinent as well as some other countries. A fundamental approach supplying a good deal of vocabulary prepared by the Mathematical Foundation has been provided for the benefit of students of Molecular Chemistry.

R.S. Thakur has consistent good academic record receiving Honours’ and Master’s degrees in Chemistry in 1966 and 1968 respectively from Patna University. He was conferred upon Ph.D. in 1976. He has been involved in teaching Symmetry and Group Theory at the Department of Chemistry, B.R.A. Bihar University since 1985. He has been guiding research scholars and playing a pivotal role in introducing the syllabi for the subject since 1990.
