Summary
The most fundamental basis of optical activity is the differential response of a molecular·system to the probes of left- and right--circularly polarized light. Necessary to such a differential response is the presence of an asymmetry in the system. For natural optical activity this asymmetry is inherent in the molecule, for magnetically-induced optic.al activity it must be supplied by an external magnetic field.In conclusion, the attempt has been to provide a theoretical textbook of optical activity, one that would prove valuable to neophyte and expert alike. It is hoped that it will be helpful in stimulating investigation into new application of natural and magnetically-induced optical activity.
