Editorial Reviews

Review

"Crystallization is an important separation and purification technique used in the food, pharmaceutical, and chemical industry [sic]. The study of crystallization is a very interesting field that involves the work in a multidisciplinary team (chemical engineers, organic solid-state chemists, pharmaceutical scientists, and physicists). The book contains the papers of the Third International Workshop on Crystal Growth of Organic Materials--August 27-31, 1995, Washington D.C. The main conference topics were molecular modeling application to crystallization, crystallization in the pharmaceutical industry, industrial crystallization of organic materials, crystallization in the food industry, and general subjects. . . . Based on very rich bibliographical references, the present book is recommended to all scientists from academic or industrial research laboratories."--Cellulose Chemistry and Technology
