Dear Peter, Other recent titles of direct relevance are by Ladd and Palmer now into its 4th Edition, a notable achievement, as well as by Messerschmidt. Detailed Book Reviews of most titles mentioned can be found in Acta Crystallographica, accessible at www.iucr.org and also in Crystallography Revi

Back when I was a graduate student, my favorite book was Drenth. However, that book was never a favorite with most students, who preferred Crystallography Made Crystal Clear. I also think the Blow book is good. I'm not familiar with the newer books written by our mailing list colleagues. ho

Hi all, I haven't gotten past the phase of growing the crystal, but I'd certainly still like to learn the actual theories of crystallography. Can anyone recommend a good beginner to mid-level text on macromolecular crystallography? Thanks, Peter
