The classic in the field since 1848, this extraordinary reference offers readers
unsurpassed coverage of mineralogy and crystallography. The book is known for
integrating complete coverage of concepts and principles with a more systematic and
descriptive treatment of mineralogy. The revised edition now includes a CD-ROM to let
readers see the minerals and crystals, while also viewing chemical composition,
symmetry, and morphological crystallography.
