Reviewed in the United States on November 23, 2002
This book is how I bootstrapped my way into being a molecular simulationist. Anyone who can program in some language can get started writing simple routines for the basic MD and MC simulations.
I do Monte Carlo simulations at Princeton, and found this book to be the most helpful available for getting my research started. It is my most common reference, and is used extensively in writing background information for various research documents.
However, after you have written your first few codes, you will pass the level of this book and need to move on. I use it less now than I did my first year.
Every student in my group (Panagiotopoulos) has this book I think. And like me, they started with it, but moved on.
