This book presents the fundamentals of crystallography to students studying the solid state in chemistry, physics, materials science, geological sciences, and engineering. Computers are an essential part of crystallography, and appropriate computer-based exercises are integrated into this book for self-study. The material is presented in a logical order with the goal of understanding not only how atoms are arranged in crystals, but how crystal systems are related to each other. The theoretical material is developed extensively in two dimensions. An overview and some detailed examples are given in three dimensions.…mehr

Maureen M. Julian earned an AB from Hunter College, New York City, with a double major in physics and mathematics, and a PhD from Cornell University in physical chemistry with a thesis in crystallography. She was a research fellow at University College, London, with Professor Dame Kathleen Lonsdale, a founder of the International Tables for Crystallography. The author has given several series of crystallography workshops for undergraduate and graduate students in various departments, including chemistry, geology, and materials science. Her interests include ab initio calculations, molecular bonding, and group theory.
