What's it all about?

The classic in the field since 1848, this extraordinary reference offers readers unsurpassed coverage of mineralogy and crystallography. The book is known for it's complete coverage of concepts and principles with along a more systematic and descriptive treatment of mineralogy.

This volume is the 21st edition of a major reference work, originally established in 1848, which explores the crystal and physical properties of minerals. This revised edition now includes a CD-ROM to let readers see the minerals and crystals, while also viewing chemical composition, symmetry, and morphological crystallography.

 

Serious Crystals says...

A most excellent source of reference, both paper and electronic. No matter where you live in the world, it pays to order this one from Amazon.co.uk (see the links above) - even with unfavourable US/UK exchange rates, the price difference between the US and UK still makes the UK version the cheaper by far.
