"The purpose of this book is to acquaint the reader who has no previous knowledge of the subject with the theory of x-ray diffraction, the experimental methods involved, and the main applications. Because the author is a metallurgist, the majority of this applications are described in terms of metals and alloys. However, little or no modification of experimental method is required for the examination of nonmetallic materials, inasmuch as the physical principles involved do not depend on the material investigated. This book should therefore be useful to metallurgists, chemists, physicists, ceramists, mineralogists, etc., namely, to all who use x-ray diffraction purely as a laboratory tool for the sort of problems as chemical analysis and stress measurement, to the study of phase equilibria and the measurement of particle size, to the determination of the orientation of one crystal or the ensemble of orientations in a polycrystalline aggregate."
"Not as good as the second edition. Absolutely classic. Truthfully, didn't bother to read all of the experimental sections, but found the theoretical descriptions extremely clear and helpful. Also the second edition looks prettier with the foe leather binding."
