The ABC of Density Functional Theoryby Kieron Burke, et al. - University of California, Irvine
DFT is not just another way of solving the Schroedinger equation. Density functional theory is a completely different, rigorous way of approaching any interacting problem, by mapping it exactly to a much easier-to-solve non-interacting problem.
