We propose here a molecular theory of liquid crystals based on well-known theory of classical liquids. The method of calculation involves the simultaneous solution of two coupled nonlinear integral equations. The one- and two-particle distribution functions are obtained, as are order parameters as functions of density and temperature. The results are compared with those of mean-field calculations.
