It is lavishly illustrated and well printed. It contains many examples to illustrate the points being made, and these, together with the problems for solution at the end of each chapter, make it suitable for use as a textbook at the graduate level. In addition to its role as a guide to the International Tables the book is valuable for the research scientist because of the many tables it presents.\" \u003cb\u003e--PHYSICS TODAY\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"An understandable and comprehensive guide...Of particular interest in this new edition are the discussions of space groups application to such timely topics as high-temperature superconductors, phase transitions, semiconductor superlattices, incommensurate modulation, and icosahedral symmetry.\" \u003cb\u003e--SCITECH\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"The book will be extremely useful to those who are interested in improving their knowledge of space groups for the determination of complicated structures.\" \u003cb\u003e--MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp align=\"justify\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis comprehensively revised – essentially rewritten – new edition of the 1990 edition (described as \"\u003ci\u003eextremely useful\u003c\/i\u003e\" by MATHEMATICAL REVIEWS and as \"\u003ci\u003eunderstandable and comprehensive\u003c\/i\u003e\" by Scitech) guides readers through the dense array of mathematical information in the International Tables Volume A.
