By Roger H. Mitchell, 2002, 318 pp. softcover, ISBN 0-9689411-0-9

Pervoskites Cover

This volume is intended as an introduction for the neophyte to the structure and compositional variation found in perovskite-group and related compounds, will be of interest to solid state chemists, materials scientists, crystallographers, and mineralogists. The work does not describe the magnetic, electrical or other physical properties of perovskite-group compounds
