Description
Paper reference code: A180-182
[Letter originally enclosed with RR/73/240].
Lennard-Jones describes the difficulty in reading Boys three papers, however remarks on the progress that has 'been made in applying these methods to many electron systems'.
Written at The University Chemical Laboratory, Cambridge [England].
[All three published in Proceedings A, 1951].
