The book is a good starting-point for everyone interested in crystal growing in inorganic silicate gels. Although it is limited to sodiummetasilicate-gels (more or less ignoring any other gelling media), it provides the reader with very useful hints and applications of this special crystal growing technique. Starting with the basics of the method, the reader is introduced to the mechnanism and "background" of the chemical and physical properties of the gels as well as the crystals grown in such gels. I found this book very useful in the first part of my Ph.D. project, because I don't know any other publication providing details about this technique.
