With the tremendous array of experimental tools available today to scientists and engineers for studying the structure of materials, structural arrangements for crystalline and noncrystalline materials, and liquid crystals can be described with great accuracy. This book specializes in the structure of materials, and focuses solely on the three different states of solid condensed matter--glasses, crystals, and liquid crystals--and develop a set of tools for describing all of them. Treatment includes glasses, crystals, liquid crystals, imperfections in ordered media, and microstructure. This book uses a more concise and consistent approach with the way materials scientists and engineers need to think about materials in order to select them and use them to their best advantage.
