Reviews

'The strong editorial hand of Cheetham and Day has succeeded in producing a book of remarkable homogeneity...The books also achieves the right balance of theory and description for its intended readership...This is not a book that one person can review-its scope is too wide-so I have discussed it with several colleagues, who all share my enthusiasm.'Nature
'...this is an indispensable book.'Angewandte Chemie
'The coverage is,comprehensive.'CHEMTRONICS
'The book will provide a useful source of reference for undergradute courses dealing with solid state chemistry.'CHEMTRONICS
