Preftwe
THE proliferation and the importance of the results of crystal structure
analysis confront the chemist with the need to learn the language of
crystallography. This book is an outgrowth of the opinion that the
training of the undergraduate chemistry major can include more of
this language than the memorization of a list of lattice types. At the
same time, it would be unreasonable and impractical to expect all
chemists to e experts in this specialized field. The purpose,
therefore, is to treat the subject in a manner that will quickly and
painlessly enable the nonspecialist to read prehend the
crystallographic literature. It is hoped that this introduction may serve
as a useful starting point for those students who wish to pursue the
subject further.
The principal message is contained in the first four chapters. That is,
these chapters supply the vocabulary of crystallography, and descrip•
tions of crystal structures should be rendered intelligibl
