This textbook describes the structural principles of inorganic molecules and solids. Traditional concepts as well as modern approaches have been considered and are explained with the aid of examples. Important structure types are dealt with repeatedly from different points of view. Beginning with the theoretical aspects, the book considers each type of structure with the relevant classical and modern examples, including sphere-packings, polyhedra and diamond-like structures.
