Crystal Chemistry and Refractivity by Howard W. Jaffe ISBN: 048669173X Dover Publications Price: $13.95 click here to see this book Mainly concerned with the arrangements of atoms in a crystalline array and the nature of their chemical bonding in minerals, this book emphasizes the relationships of atomic and electronic structure, chemical bonding, symmetry of regular and distorted atomic arrays and optical properties of crystalline minerals. 1988 edition.
