-
in fact, a lot different in its flavor --
-
from what you do in physics, or even what you do in physical chemistry,
-
because we're more interested --
-
we're not so interested in getting numbers or solving mathematical problems,
-

-
We want it to be rigorous but we don't need it to be numerical.
