Abstract
A personal view is offered on various solved and open problems related to crystal structures: the present state of reconstructing the crystal electron density from X-ray diffraction data; characterization of atomic and molecular motion from a combination of atomic displacement parameters and quantum chemical calculations; Bragg diffraction and diffuse scattering: twins, but different; models of real (as opposed to ideal) crystal structures from diffuse scattering; exploiting unexplored neighbourhoods of crystallography to mathematics, physics and chemistry.
