In a previous book about chirality, entitled Chirality from Molecular Electronic

*In chemistry, biology, and physics, "chirality" is an important concept in nature. In chemistry, not only classical stereochemistry but also asymmetric organic synthesis, supramolecular chemistry, construction of bio-related molecules, and molecular recognition have become indispensable structural chemical keywords. However, in view of synthetic chemistry and its structural chemistry, chemistry dealing with chirality in relation to the more fundamental electronic state is still a minority. This book focuses on chiroptical spectroscopy, structural or*

In contrast to the previous book, this new book about chirality includes contributions from authors in many fields of natural science, providing a wider overview. The book's focus is chirality and organic chemistry, including synthesis and reactions. For
