Produktbeschreibung
The Growth of a Crystal: Being the Eighteenth Robert Boyle Lecture by William Thomas Gordon is a seminal scientific work that delves into the fascinating world of crystallography and the processes underlying crystal formation and growth. Delivered as part of the prestigious Robert Boyle Lecture series, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of the physical and chemical principles that govern the development of crystals, making it accessible to both scientific audiences and curious lay readers. Gordon begins by tracing the historical context of crystallography, highlighting the contributions of early scientists and the evolution of the field. He then systematically examines the fundamental properties of crystals, including their geometric forms, symmetry, and internal molecular structure. The book provides detailed explanations of the mechanisms by which crystals grow, discussing factors such as temperature, concentration, and the presence of impurities, and how these influence the size, shape, and perfection of the resulting crystals. Throughout the text, Gordon employs clear language and illustrative diagrams to elucidate complex concepts, making the subject matter approachable. He discusses the significance of crystal growth in both natural and industrial contexts, from the formation of minerals in the earth to the manufacture of synthetic crystals for technological applications. The book also touches on the broader implications of crystallography for understanding the nature of matter and the laws of physics. The Growth of a Crystal stands as a testament to the beauty and order inherent in the natural world, as revealed through the study of crystals. It is an essential read for anyone interested in the intersection of chemistry, physics, and geology, and remains a valuable resource for students, researchers, and enthusiasts of the natural sciences.
