Fundamentals of Crystallography

Review

`Review from previous edition The book succeeds in giving a comprehensible account of modern crystallography, and can be highly recommended to all practising crystallographers.' Chemistry in Australia
`This is a remarkable text. It is a tribute at once to the wide reach of crystallography over many branches of science and to the contemporary vigor and vitality of Italian crystallography and crystallographers.' Acta Crystallographica
`The book continues the International Union of Crystallography's tradition of providing useful sources for quantitative aspects of crystals, crystal chemistry and crystallographic experimental and computational methods. It draws a good balance between the new and the old in providing a toolbox of techniques and insights for the beginning practitioner... It brings together in one place a wealth of material that is either out of print or is, in some cases, not otherwise published in such a clear and concise manner.' American Scientist
