Item description from seller
Hardcover edition. The spine has been tape reinforced due to a split running up 2/3 of the rear gutter. Bumped upper corners; otherwise, the covers are in great shape. The binding is square and tight; however, the outer cover is non-uniformly split in a jagged manner along the rear gutter. Small abrasion to the front flyleaf. The interior pages are clean, unmarked and bright as new. The book will be carefully packaged for shipment for protection from the elements. USPS electronic tracking number issued free of charge. In this vivid and comprehensible introduction to materials science, the author expands the modern concepts of metal physics to formulate basic theory applicable to other engineering materials, such as ceramics and polymers. Written for engineering students and working engineers with little previous knowledge of solid-state physics, this textbook enables the reader to study more specialized and fundamental literature of materials science. Dozens of illustrative photographs, many of them transmission electron microscopy images, plus line drawings, aid developing a firm appreciation of this complex topic. Hard-to-grasp terms such as "textures" are lucidly explained - not only the phenomenon itself, but also its consequences for the material properties. This excellent book makes materials science more transparent.…
