Editorial Reviews
Review
The book will make delightful reading for any researcher working on liquid crystals, but should be, for various reasons, more generally of value to anyone with an interest in the history of science. … this is a fascinating book that could well find its place in every liquid crystal scientist's personal library
-- Liquid Crystals Today Volume 13, Issue 4, December 2004
Book Description
This book has collected important papers, some available for the first time in English, in the development of liquid crystal science into one reference volume. The collection is divided into sections, each of which is prefaced by a brief commentary, referring to the historic-scientific context of the time. More modern papers carry a short commentary from the original author, offering recollections of the context in which the work was carried out and what its impact has been. Crystals That Flow is aimed at liquid crystal scientists in the fields of physics, mathematics, chemistry, engineering or computer science. Historians of science will also find this a useful reference.
