Bernstein J.

Review
`Review from previous edition Bernstein's book is a rich and comprehensive compilation and illustration of the structural variety of polymorphs and their properties.' ACA Book Reviews

`An excellent resource book and a very good read ... can be recommended strongly both for content and interest.' Crystallographic Newsletter

`Clear, vigorous, well-written and very readable ... Joel Bernstein's book represents the single most important source for the development of critical understanding of polymorphism and its commercial and industrial importance. ' Current Engineering Practice

`It will be the book, for a long time to come, to which students and researchers will turn with confidence, as well as pleasure, in all questions of polymorphism in molecular crystals.' Structural Chemistry


Product Description
Polymorphism--the multiplicity of structures or forms--is a term that is used in many disciplines. In chemistry it refers to the existence of more than one crystal structure for a particular chemical substance. The properties of a substance are determined by its composition and by its structure. In the last two decades, there has been a sharp rise in the interest in olymorphic systems, as an intrinsically interesting phenomenon, and as an increasingly important component in the development and marketing of a variety of materials based on organic molecule (e.g. pharmaceuticals, dyes and pigments, explosives etc). This book summarizes and brings up to date the current knowledge and understanding of polymorphism of molecular crystals, and concentrates it in one comprehensive source. The book will be invaluable reference for students, researchers, and professionals in the field.
