[Set of Handbook and Bibliography]

Since the discovery of X-ray diffraction in 1913 over 100.000 different inorganic substances (also called compounds or phases) have been structurally characterized. The information has been published in over 72.000 publications spread over 1.000 different scientific journals.

The aim of this reference work is to provide the researcher with a comprehensive compilation on inorganic substances in only three volumes.

The work resembles a phone directory and this is also the way it should be used: Like a phone number tied to a name, this work provides critically evaluated physical properties tied to a chemical substance and quantitative information on publications related to a chemical system.
