Fundamentals of Crystals

The four-volume treatment Modern Crystallography presents an encyclopaedic exposition of problems concerned with the structure of crystals, their growth and properties. Fundamentals of Crystals, the first volume, is devoted to the symmetry and geometrical theory of crystals; it also covers modern methods for investigating the atomic structure of crystals.
