Macromolecular Crystallization and Crystal Perfection. By Naomi E. Chayen, John R. Helliwell and Edward H. Snell. Pp. xi+221. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2010. International Union of Crystallography Book Series, Monographs on Crystallography 24. Price (hardback) £65. ISBN-13: 9780199213252.

Macromolecular Crystallization and Crystal Perfection. By Naomi E. Chayen, John R. Helliwell and... Keywords: book received . This book aims to address the science behind obtaining the best and most complete structural data possible for biological macromolecules so that the detailed structural biology and chemistry of these important molecules can emerge. Crystal imperfections such as twinning and lattice disorders are also described. The small-crystal frontier in microcrystal crystallography, crystallites in powders right down to the proposed single-molecule structure determination using X-ray lasers, are covered. Overall this interdisciplinary book will interest crystal growers, X-ray and neutron physicists as well as biological, chemical and physical crystallographers.
