Materials Science for Engineers, 5th Edition
Editorial Reviews
Review
The whole book is an easy-to-read introduction into some of the most important and interesting parts of materials science. It focuses on the main issues and treats these in a clear and precise manner … . A number of end-of-chapter problems and well-selected self-assessment questions (with answers) will enable students to test their understanding of the text … . [Some] textbooks … try to introduce microstructural characterization and micromechanical modelling at the undergraduate stage, but many statements … turn out to be incorrect ... . This is what the present book carefully avoids and what might be a key to its success.

Book Description
The fifth edition of this successful textbook continues to provide an introduction to the basic principles of materials science over a broad range of topics, current applications, and recently developed materials. Materials Science for Engineers, 5th Edition includes an expanded treatment of many materials, particularly polymers, foams, composites and functional materials. Superconductors and magnetics receive greater coverage to account for the considerable development in these fields in recent years. New sections on liquid crystals, superalloys, and organic semiconductors have also been added to enhance this textbook's coverage of materials science.
