The first edition of Volume C was published in March 1992. It is intended to supersede Volumes II, III and IV of the previous series International Tables for X-ray Crystallography, and this is the last occasion for which data of sales etc. of these will appear in Table 1. As Volume C contains many sections contributed by many authors, it has been necessary to make the indexes more extensive than in any previous volume. An author index is included for the first time. The deaths of two contributors, Henry Lipson and William Parrish, in the course of the preparation of the volume are recorded with sorrow.
