The book was coauthored by Prof. Takeshi Egami (U. Tennessee) and NIRT investigator Prof. Simon Billinge (Michigan State U.). It is titled "Underneath the Bragg Peaks: Structural analysis of Complex Materials" and is publishehd by Plenum. A recent review in Materials Today said "If you have an interest in atomic structure of materials, and local structural details in particular, PDF methods can be profoundly useful. I would heartily recommend this book as a starting point if you are considering using PDF analysis in your own work. For more experienced practitioners, this text is a useful reference."
