"...I am certain that this book will be very usefull for students who have to identify phases, and it will be a big success for the publisher, too. I certainly will ask our librarian to order more copies to shorten the time my students will need to wait." (Antal Jakli, Liquid crystal Institute, In: chemphychem, 2004) "The book is certainly essential reading for those working in the field of liquid crystals, be they inexperienced research students or experts in elucidating the structures of liquid-crystalline phases from optical textures." (Mike Hird, Angewandte Chemie, IE, 2003; Vol, 42; No. 47) "The monograph Texture of Liquid Crystals by Ingo Dierking provides a comprehensive collection of textures observed by polarizing microscopy in thermotropic liquid crystals. ... In conclusion, Texture of Liquid Crystals by Ingo Dierking may serve a very good textbook for masters and graduate courses in liquid-crystalline materials characterization. But more advanced materials scientists may also benefit from the book significantly, using the large number of systematically ordered, well-chosen color plates as a reference for classifying the phase of a new liquid-crystalline material." (Kell Mortensen, Danish Polymer Center, Riso National Laboratory, Roskilde, Advanced Materials, Vol. 16, No. 22, November 18, 2004)
