B. K. Vainshtein Translated and Edited by E. Feigl and J. A. Spink Oxford: Pergamon Press. 1964. Pp. vi + 420. Price 100s. The analysis of crystal structure by electron diffraction, particularly by the use of Fourier methods, is a subject which was originally developed in Russia, notably by Vainshtein, Pinsker and Zvyagin, and quickly followed up in Australia, by Cowley, Rees, and Spink. It is fitting then, that the present book should be a Russo—Australian effort, written by one pioneer, and jointly translated by another.
