A public lecture was delivered at the University of Manchester as part of its 150th anniversary celebration, focusing on X-ray crystal structure analysis and the work of W. L. Bragg in the history of the University. This lecture included a variety of demonstrations illustrating the principles of diffraction and describing crystal structures and properties. Video sequences of the demonstrations are now available at the IUCr website. The lecture has been converted from video format into digital format and edited to improve the visual quality of the viewgraphs via ‘splicing in’ retyped text displays. The lecture is split into ‘chapters’ to facilitate the selection by the viewer of, for example, particular lecture demonstrations. The lecture can of course be viewed as a whole, lasting in total 46 min. The lecture and the individual lecture extracts of each of the
