Donald A. McQuarrie (May 20, 1937 - July 6, 2009) was an American chemist best known for his many textbooks such as “Physical Chemistry: A Molecular Approach” and “General Chemistry.” McQuarrie graduated from Lowell Technological Institute, now part of University of Massachusetts Lowell, in 1958 with a bachelor's degree in chemistry and from John Hopkins University in 1960 with an M.A. degree in chemistry. He received his Ph.D in physical chemistry from the University of Oregon under Terrell L. Hill in 1962 and was a professor at the University of California, Davis at the time of his retirement in 1994. His research interests included non-linear dynamical systems and statistical thermodynamics of electrolyte systems. McQuarrie’s wife, Carole, is also a chemist and holds a Ph.D in biochemistry.
