Items related to Properties of Natural and Synthetic Diamond
This is the third book to appear in this series on the pure and applied sciences of diamond. For 40 years there has been a collaboration between academia and the industry on diamond research which, in my view, is unrivalled in the United Kingdom.

From the Back Cover:
The Properties of Natural and Synthetic Diamond bulids on the success of earlier volume, THE PROPERTIES OF DIAMOND (Academic Press, 1979), long regarded as "the bible" of the subject because of its scope which covers the full range of properties and applications of diamond. This new volume documents the major advances in the last decade in understanding the physical properties of diamond and in finding new technological applications. One of the most important recent developments is the discovery that it is possible to grow diamond metastably and produce thin films. This and other recent developments have caused an explosion of interest in diamond, leading to several major international conferences being held on the subject every year. This book brings together the information available on the new developments, as well as comprehensively updating the earlier book.
