Originally published in 1938, this textbook was primarily designed
for university students to provide a solid grounding in the science
of crystal physics. Previous knowledge of materials science is
considered a prerequisite for the content as well as a solid
understanding of physics, mathematics and crystallography.
Throughout this book a two-fold purpose has been kept in view - 'to
present the classical treatment of the physical properties of
crystals in terms of tensor notation and also to indicate the lines
of development of modern theoretical and experimental research'.
Chapters are broad in scope, detailed and clearly written; chapter
titles include, 'Conduction', 'Electric induction' and
'Elasticity'. Multiple diagrams are included throughout for
reference. Encompassing the increasingly interdisciplinary nature
of the subject and its rapid scientific developments, this textbook
will be of significant value to students of physics as well to
anyone with an interest in crystallography, geology and the history
of education.
