- Provide students with the background knowledge to comprehend the exciting advances in modern inorganic chemical research.
- Covers many topics that are not usually treated in textbooks.
- Point groups and space groups are introduced, and symmetry concepts are utilized in the discussion of molecular systems and crystal structures.
- "Computational Chemistry" and "Supramolecular Structural Chemistry" are included to reflect their increasing importance in contemporary research.
- Promotes an understanding of modern chemical crystallography among the scientific community.
This book is a revised and updated English edition of a textbook that has grown out of several years of teaching. The term "inorganic" is used in a broad sense as the book covers the structural chemistry of representative elements (including carbon) in the periodic table, organometallics, coordination polymers, host-guest systems and supramolecular assemblies. Part I of the book reviews the basic bonding theories, including a chapter on computational chemistry. Part II introduces point groups and space groups and their chemical applications. Part III comprises a succinct account of the structural chemistry of the elements
in the periodic table. It presents structure and bonding, generalizations of structural trends, crystallographic data, as well as highlights from the recent literature.Readership: Senior undergraduate and graduate students in inorganic chemistry, structural chemistry, condensed matter physics, materials science, and crystallography.

"Advanced Structural Inorganic Chemistry is the best text on structural inorganic chemistry that I have seen. It is logically laid out, easy to read and follow, and comprehensive. [...] I highly recommend this book for graduate level solid state structure courses. The breadth and depth of the material is unparalleled." - Peter M. Smith, J. Chem. Educ. 2011 "This book should be on the shelves of all laboratories or libraries that support teaching or research that relies upon structural inorganic chemistry." - Crystallography Reviews
