From Booklist If it's facts you want about curmudgeonly radio personality Don Imus, this book will suffice--if you don't mind a writing style that's so clunky you can hear it even after you close the cover. Ilene Cooper. This undistinguished biography has its uses, but only if information about Imus is in considerable demand. Still, he has assembled his material in an orderly enough manner; he traces Imus' life chronologically, focusing on the radio persona and accentuating the positive, though he can hardly avoid mentioning the star's drinking and drug-taking period and his outrageous speech at a press dinner bashing President Clinton (with Clinton on the dais).

He watches him regularly on MSNBC from his home in Wichita, Kansas. For almost twenty years, Jim Reed has been listening to Don Imus. Molecular orbital theory is used to explain the electronic structure of molecules, which is, of course, of fundamental importance to the chemist.Bonding theories for organic and inorganic models are developed and a brief treatment is given on the solid state at the end of the book.This is a book that I often use as a reference. For example, many of the stated theorems are false, if you were to allow infinite recursion; they take pains to show that their algorithms always terminate! Unfortunately, this excludes many classes of interesting behavior, but does make it "more appropriate" for practical comp-sci applications, e.g. The other two books are Alvarez's "The Mountains of Saint Francis: discovering the geologic events that shaped our earth", and Heiken, Funiciello & de Rita's "The Seven Hills of Rome: a geological tour of the eternal city."
