1: Reduction: a model for the reduction of chemistry to physics -- Part I Explanatory Limits -- 2 Explaining the Chemical Bond: Idealisation and Concretisation -- 3 Molecular Structure: What Philosophers got wrong -- 4 The Theory of Absolute Reaction Rates -- 5 Quantum chemistry as a Research Programme -- Part II Formal Models -- 6 Reduction between structures: some issues and a proposal -- 7 Models for Quantum Chemistry -- 8 Reduction with Structures: Two examples -- Part III Ontological consequences -- 9 Orbitals and Ontology in the Philosophy of Chemistry -- 10 The ontology of chemistry.

This monograph deals with the interrelationship between chemistry and physics, and especially the role played by quantum chemistry as a theory in between these two disciplines. The author uses structuralist approach to explore the overlap between the two sciences, looking at their theoretical and ontological borrowings as well as their continuity. The starting point of this book is that there is at least a form of unity between chemistry and physics, where the reduction relation is conceived as a special case of this unity. However, matters are never concluded so simply within philosophy of chemistry, as significant problems exist around a number of core chemical ideas. Specifically, one cannot take the obvious success of quantum theories as outright support for a reductive relationship. Instead, in the context of a suitably adapted Nagelian framework for reduction, modern chemistry's relationship to physics is constitutive. The results provided by quantum chemistry, in partic ular, have significant consequences for chemical ontology. This book is ideal for students, scholars and academics from the field of Philosophy of Science, and particularly for those with an interest in Philosophy of Chemistry and Physics.
