Structures of light unstable nuclei, Li, Be, B, and C isotopes aresystematically studied with a microscopic method of antisymmetrized moleculardynamics. The theoretical method is found to be very useful to study ground andexcited states of various nuclei covering unstable nuclei. The calculationssucceed to reproduce many experimental data for nuclear structures; energies,radii, magnetic dipole moments, electric quadrupole moments, transitionstrength. In the theoretical results it is found that various exotic phenomenain unstable nuclei such as molecular-like structures, neutron skin, and largedeformations may appear in unstabel nuclei. We investigate the structure changewith the increase of neutron number and with the increase of the excitationenergies, and find the drastic changes between shell-model-like structures andclustering structures. The mechanism of clustering developments in unstablenuclei are discussed.Comment: 73 pages, Revtex, 42 postscript figures (using epsf.sty). to be published in Suppl. Prog. Theor. Phy
