Dr W A Wooster
It is reported with regret that Dr Wooster of Cambridge died in April.
He will be remembered for his many contributions to science, including books
on experimental crystal physics, diffuse X-ray scattering and, with Henry and Lipson, on the interpretation of X-ray diffraction photographs as well as by the excellent models and apparatus built by Crystal Structures Ltd which are used by crystallographers worldwide.
