After theend ofthe 20th century, the science ofcrystallizationreached a truly exciting stage where new opportunities emerged in both theory and expe- ment. Variousphysical methodsare capable of resolving the surface as wellas the insid estructure of crystalsat the atomiclevel while newhigh-performance computing resourcesafford thecapability of modeling the complexlarge-scale alignments necessary to simulatecrystallizationinrealsystems. Asaresult, the science of crystallization has shifted gradually fromstatic to dynamic science and considerable progress now underlies the complex but beautiful cryst- lization process.The vastpotential ofcrystallizationasan- portant feld ofscience isfar beyondthesimple technologyofpharmaceutical industries during the 20th century.
