Several of the contributions are from the schools of such trend-setting crystallographers as J. Desmond Bernal and Aleksandr I. Kitaigorodskii. Internationally renowned scientists contributed such as Tom L. Blundell, Johann Jacob Burckhardt, John L. Finney, Jenny P. Glusker, Nobel laureate Herbert A. Hauptman, the 2014 Ewald-Prize winner A. Janner, Aminoff-Prize winner Isabella Karle, Nobel laureate Jerome Karle, Buckley-Prize winner Alan L. Mackay, Ewald-Prize winner David Sayre, Vladimir Shevchenko, and J. Fraser Stoddart. A few frontier topics dominate the selected material. Pioneers of the direct methods describe the phase problem and how it was solved, including the mathematical approach and the utilization of experience with gas-phase electron diffraction. The reviews by Herbert Hauptman, Jerome and Isabella Karle, and David Sayre reach to the present day in assessing the possibilities of X-ray crystallography. Another focus topic is the investigation of systems that are outside the so-called classical system of crystals. They include quasicrystals, imperfect and very small crystals, supramolecular species, crystal structures without lattice, clusters, nanomaterials among others. Application of synchrotron and cryoprotection techniques, the free-electron laser flash technique and others are mentioned in addition to X-ray crystallography. The relationship between structural and materials properties are examined and uncovered. The broader topics of the so-called generalized crystallography include polymers, clusters, polydisperse chain assemblies, and giant icosahedral fullerenes. There are some key contributions related to the structural investigation of biological macromolecules. 606 $aInorganic chemistry 606 $aStructural materials 606 $aCrystallography 606 $aInorganic Chemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C16008 606 $aStructural Materials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z11000 606 $aCrystallography and Scattering Methods$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25056 615 0$aInorganic chemistry. 615 0$aStructural materials. 615 0$aCrystallography. 615 14$aInorganic Chemistry. 615 24$aStructural Materials. 615 24$aCrystallography and Scattering Methods. 676 $a540 702 $aHargittai$b Istvan$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aHargittai$b Balazs$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298618503321 996 $aScience of Crystal Structures$92077941 997 $aUNINA
