Book excerpt: Laser control of chemical dynamics is one of the active research fields in molecular science, brought about by significant advances in laser technology and further development of quantum control theory. This monograph features the author's outstanding contributions to the field. The first four chapters provide an excellent review of the fundamental subjects that are crucial to understanding laser-molecule interactions, with the highlight being his Zhu-Nakamura theory of nonadiabatic transition. This is an important basic theory for describing processes relevant to laser control, and has been used by scientists around the world because of its simplicity and accuracy. The remaining chapters propose theoretical possibilities of controlling various chemical dynamic processes based on theories discussed earlier in the book.
