The text discusses the quantum molecular sciences in biology and medicine, and explores new possibilities opening up in medical research, especially in the fight against cancer and AIDS. It also describes a new view of the world, in which the dance of the molecules inspires scientists and artists alike. This book should be of interest to students of science history and philosophy, and to general science readers.

Trained as a physicist, he was an assistant to Irène Joliot-Curie at the Radium Institute. Daudel spent almost the entirety of his career as professor at the Sorbonne and director of a laboratory of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (National Center for Scientific Research). He is quoted as saying that the latter "was much better because the National Center for Scientific Research was very rich".
This allowed Daudel to attract many co-workers from elsewhere in France and internationally.
Raymond Daudel was Officier de la Légion d"honneur and Officier de l"Ordre National du Mérite. He served as President of the European Academy of Arts Sciences and Humanities, in Paris, France.
Daudel was a founding member and Honorary President of the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science. An author as well as an academic, Raymond Daudel authored several books, including Quantum chemistry, originally with R. Lefebyre and C. Moser in 1959 (Interscience Publishers, Incorporated, New York) and later with G. Leroy, Doctorate. Peeters, and M. Sana, published by Wiley in 1983.
He was responsible for the organization of the first International Congresses in Quantum Chemistry, held in Menton, France in 1973.
