About the book

"In this memoir of a long, distinguished career devoted to scientific research, world-renowned mathematician Herbert A. Hauptman recounts both the tremendous joys and the electric anticipation of scientific endeavor, as well as the disappointments he faced in his lifelong quest to induce nature to "reveal her secrets." Dr. Hauptman describes the difficulties of the mathematical work that led to this discovery as well as his extraordinary joy when, after many trials and attempts, he finally hit upon a method of unraveling the structure of crystals."--BOOK JACKET.
