He is best known for his work with Robert G. Parr on the method of molecular orbital computation now known (because it was independently developed by John A. Pople) as the Pariser-Parr-Pople method (PPP method), published both by Pariser and Parr and by Pople in almost simultaneous papers in 1953.
He was born in Harbin, China, but became a naturalizedcitizen of the United States of America in 1944.
