Understanding Materials Science : History, Properties, ApplicationsSecond Edition
Editorial Reviews
Scientific American, James D. Livingston
Hummel teaches materials science at the University of Florida, where this book will presumably be used as a text. In his preface, however, he expresses the hope that his book will also attract a sizable readership from the humanities. Such readers would enjoy reading the historical sections, studying the color plates and at least skimming the more technical chapters to get a quick overview of the basic science of materials.
