In his introduction to the volume, Leonid V. Azaroff notes that Martin J Buerger made many contributions to science, including "the advancement of crystal structure analysis from a iterative art to a modern virtually automatic process...including his instrumental development of modern powder cameras, equi-inclination geometry, and the precession camera...", "the transformation of mineralogy from a purely descriptive science to one that seeks to relate the properties of minerals to their structure." and "the education of various scientists in the principles and practice of x-ray crystallography and of some thirty graduate students and an equal number of postgraduates in its applications to mineralogy."
