This is an account of the application of modern physical and chemical techniques to the elucidation of the structures and properties of minerals at the atomic level. Strong emphasis is given to the application of computer modelling methods, spectroscopic techniques and both X-ray and neutron scattering methods. Detailed surveys are presented of the contemporary understanding of the equations of state for Mantle minerals; and special attention is paid to the properties of dissolved water in silicate minerals.
