The books by Putnis (1992) and Deer, Howie, and Zussman (1992), among others, provide great insight, as does the literature from solid-state chemistry, such as the books of Wells (1970), Hyde and Anderson (1989), and others. A great source for further reading is the mineralogical literature. There are many books on crystals and crystallography-which is best for you depends on your background and interests.
