Industrial Crystallization

'This book is readable and informative. It contains many worked examples to illustrate concepts as they are introduced. The book also includes extensive reference lists at the end of each chapter, which provides a structured route into the specialised crystallisation literature...this feature alone could justify [the book's] purchase...The book is well structured and reflects the author's scholarly approach to his subject...I have no hesitation in recommending this book to anyone with an interest in industrial crystallisation.' Chemistry in Britain 'Provides a good literature survey...Recommended as an extremely useful tool for process engineers, technologists and researchers in the field, and to advanced-level students of chemical engineering.' International Union of Crystallography
