This textbook presents an extensive manual of crystallography, including geometric crystallography, crystallochemistry, and crystallophysics. Illustrated with a wealth of figures and diagrams, it offers a thorough introduction to crystals for undergraduate and graduate students interested in learning the essentials and advanced concepts of crystallography. The book begins with basic concepts such as the geometry, morphology and symmetry of lattices, allowing readers to approach the subject from a mathematical point of view, abstracting it from its material content. In turn, the second part focuses on crystallochemistry and explains the differences between ideal and real crystals, and between static and dynamic ones. The third part of the textbook concerns crystallophysics and addresses the electrical, magnetic, mechanical, elastic and optical properties of crystals, as well as the fundamental laws and methods of X-ray diffraction.

She is Professor of Crystallography and Mineralogy of the Department Geology of the Oviedo University. She got Degree in Geological Sciences from the Oviedo University in 1978 and PhD in Geology from the same university in 1985. She is Gemologist from the Barcelona University and Fellowship Diploma from the Gemmological Association of Great Britain in 1990. She teaches crystallography in the Bachelor of Geology and courses about environmental mineralogy in the master of Geological Resources and Geological Engineering of the Geology Faculty of the Oviedo University. She published on optical properties of opaque minerals, crystal structure refinement of minerals, environmental mineralogy (atmospheric particles), physical and chemical characteristics of vermiculites and its application, geoarcheology
