Title: Old, but AWESOME
Review: The best book I have seen so far on solid state physics.It extensively deals with crystallography: its geometry, its structure (the spheres, the closest packing, etc.) the atomic packings, imperfections, mechanical properties of crystals, the crystal's formation, transformation in crystals, atomic bonds, metals (porps & structure), semiconductors (props & structure) and also insulators.This is all done in a way that I have decided to abondone my newer books and get one of this 1960 version. Of course there might be some things not really up to date (probably the semiconductor section), but still, one of the best books I have ever seen (corresponding to "theoretical electrical engineering" by simonyi for electrical engineers, which is from 1980 and definetely THE book in its field).
Is the review positive or negative?
