Inhaltsangabe

Polymorphism examines the foundations of chemical crystallography in this concise yet informative volume, which brings together two historical articles exploring the concept of polymorphism--the ability of a substance to exist in more than one crystal form.

Carefully selected from classic material dating back to the early 1900s and earlier for its relevance and interest to modern readers, the writings explain key aspects of how crystals can adopt different structures and why this matters in mineral science and crystallography.

Contents include:

  • An Introduction to Chemical Crystallography by P. Groth
  • The Study of Crystals by Dennis Brook Briggs

Professionally curated and republished in a high¿quality modern edition, this book provides an engaging introduction to polymorphism that's ideal for students, gemologists, collectors and anyone interested in the scientific history behind how crystalline materials are understood.
