Hargittai B., Hargittai I. (Eds.) Science of Crystal Structures: Highlights in Crystallography

Springer International Publishing Switzerland, 2015. – 331 p. – ISBN: 9783319198262.During the fi rst 25-year existence (1990–2015) of the international journal Structural
Chemistry , it has published hundreds of articles in crystallography. From the start, there has
been a characteristic direction in this periodical to bring out reports related to generalized
crystallography, quasicrystals, icosahedral packing, other packing considerations, extended
structures, data treatment and data mining, and what we would call “living history.”Direct Methods
