Superb study begins with fundamentals of x-ray diffraction theory using Fourier transforms, then applies general results to various atomic structures, amorphous bodies, crystals and imperfect crystals. Elementary laws of x-ray diffraction on crystals follow as special case. Highly useful for solid-state physicists, metallographers, chemists, and biologists. 154 illustrations. 1963 edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A Classic.......,
This review is from: X-Ray Diffraction: In Crystals, Imperfect Crystals, and Amorphous Bodies (Dover Books on Physics) (Paperback)
Well...this book is definitely a "must have" book on diffraction if you're interested in this field. Dr. Guiner,for those who are not familiar with diffraction, was one of the leading scientist in the field and contributed much to the development of x-ray diffractometry. The book is definitely not for the beginner. However, for someone who has made his/her initial steps into the world of x-ray crystallography, this book might be rewarding to read for it discusses the fundamentals rigorously. The book is very affordable as well, making it a very attractive buy indeed...I highly recommend it.

A must-have classic for X-ray diffractionists,
This review is from: X-Ray Diffraction: In Crystals, Imperfect Crystals, and Amorphous Bodies (Dover Books on Physics) (Paperback)
This book is an advanced treatment of x-ray diffraction, which should adorn the bookshelves of x-ray diffractionists.
It is a pleasure to see that such a diffraction classic is very affordable, thanks to Dover Publications. It is a "best buy" indeed since it offers a lot of substance for its price. The uninitiated reader in X-ray diffractometry should approach it with caution, however. It is by no means a textbook. Those who have a well-founded working knowledge in X-ray diffraction, on the other hand, may want to read this book because it elaborates on the underlying principles with utmost rigour. I highly recommend this book. Entropy4Life

A must,
This review is from: X-Ray Diffraction: In Crystals, Imperfect Crystals, and Amorphous Bodies (Dover Books on Physics) (Paperback)
Together with Warren's "X-ray diffraction", this small but complete textbook on x-ray diffraction is a must. Guinier (the same one of the Guinier-Preston zones) explains with detail and completeness the mathematical and physical treatment of diffraction in ideal and real crystals and polycrystalline materials.
