System of Crystallography (Classic Reprint): With Its Application to Mineralogy: With Its Application to Mineralogy (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Explore the science of crystal forms and how minerals take shape. This classic work introduces a practical system for understanding crystallography and its use in mineralogy, guiding readers through prisms, pyramids, zones, and the seven basic plane types that define crystal faces.
The book presents a clear, methodical approach to recognizing and describing crystal forms. It also features a descriptive catalogue of 120 crystal models used to illustrate the concepts, making it a hands-on resource for students and professionals alike.
What you’ll experience
- A step-by-step guide to crystal axes, prism and pyramid forms, and their combinations
- A fresh notation system that ties three rectangular axes to a single framework
- Worked problems and diagrams that explain angles, plane relations, and symmetry
- Access to a historic collection of crystal models that visualize complex shapes in mineralogy
Ideal for readers of mineralogy, crystallography, and the history of scientific methods, this edition serves as both a reference and a teaching companion.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a mathematical approach to crystallography. Serving as a guide both for students and for practicing scientists, it introduces tools to unravel the complex, three-dimensional forms of crystals. The author acknowledges crystallography as an essential field of study for chemists, mineralogists, and materials scientists, and emphasizes the need for a simplified system of describing crystals. The book proposes a new notation that simplifies the study of the natural and manmade crystals commonly encountered in the laboratory and the field. It includes a comprehensive survey of the major crystallographic systems, an investigation of the variety of forms and combinations that occur upon the crystals of minerals and a catalogue of all the crystals or natural combinations peculiar to the minerals named in the survey. The book argues for the total relinquishment of the doctrine of primitive forms, as one highly injurious to the science and proposes an easy and exact method of denoting Cleavage by symbols. The author goes on to propose a new theory of crystallisation, founded on an opinion that electricity is the mainspring of crystallisation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332000821_0
