Excerpt from The Principles of Pure Crystallography<br/><br/>To the investigator the author offers these pages as an excuse for the English edition of Atomechanics promised two years ago, particularly since demands for that work have recently become more frequent again, especially from Germany. The reader will, in chapters V. And VI., find a concise exposition of the present status of Atomechanics in relation to crystallography.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive guide to crystallography, a field that explores the forms of crystals. Through a systematic approach, the author delves into the various forms crystals can take, their symmetries, and the deep connection between these external forms and the internal molecular structure of the crystals. With a focus on the six main crystal systems, the book utilizes simple, rational indices to represent the parameters of any crystal face, enabling readers to understand the complex structures of crystals through accessible mathematical expressions. The author also includes a discussion of the influences of composition and external circumstances on crystal elements and crystal form, revealing the dynamic nature of crystals and their sensitivity to their surroundings. Detailed descriptions and projections of observed crystal forms, supported by practical examples from nature and the laboratory, provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of the subject. Throughout the book, the author emphasizes the practical applications of crystallography, such as mineral identification, exploring the role of crystallography in various fields, from geology to materials science. By presenting a clear and structured approach to crystallography, this book serves as an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and enthusiasts seeking a deeper understanding of the fascinating world of crystals and their significance in the broader scientific landscape.
