Understanding proton magnetic shielding in the benzene molecule

According to the ring current model quoted in textbooks of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the downfield chemical shifts of hydrogen nuclei in aromatic molecules is due to intense delocalized currents induced in the π-electron cloud by a magnetic field at right angles to the molecular plane...
