Pearson duplication of labour in producing the Crystal Data and the Landolt-Bdrnstein series, both in collecting and checking the data and in converting it into printed books, is frighten- ing. It seems that it is an effort that we can scarcely continue to afford in the future either scientifically or financially. University of Waterloo Waterloo Ontario Canada W. B. PEARSON Landolt-B0rnstein. Numerical data and functional relationships in science and technology. Group III. Crystal and solid state physics. Vol. 8. Epitaxy data of inorganic and organic crystals. By M. GEB- HARDT and A. NEUHAUS. Pp. vii + 186. Berlin : Sprin- ger, 1972. Price: (cloth) DM 118, U.S. $45.50. Volume 8 presents epitaxic data on inorganic and organic crystals and as such it extends the information provided in the crystal-data Volumes 5 to 7. It lists the planes, directions and periods and the misfits
