Atoms (Springer, Berlin; Academic Press, New York; reprinted by Plenum, New
York, 1977). A comprehensive non-relativistic and relativistic treatment of the
hydrogen and helium atoms with and without external ®elds.

University Press, Cambridge). A `classic' text on the application of quantum
theory to atomic spectra.
