Product Description
This edition has been updated to include materials, developments, and processes such as advanced polymeric materials, composites, high-energy hard magnetic materials, and optical fibers in communications. The author continues his dedication to student understanding by writing in a clear and concise manner, using terminology that is familiar and not beyond student comprehension. Topics are organized and explained in an approachable manner, so that even instructors who do not have a strong materials background can teach from this text.

Great book! For material science and engineering fits very well and for beginners, most part of it, it's good too.
 new materiasl applications but... March 25, 2008
I'm a professor, and I use this book for both: graduate and ungraduate courses, unfortunatelly I have problems for submit as a teacher in the book page, also in students page, aparently this last was designed just for the us students. Is a pity.
Perfect... July 8, 2007
Great book...does a good job of deriving things from first principles. Excellent reference, everything is well-organized. One minor complaint: I wish that the section on analyzing phase diagrams with the lever rule came with a few more examples and better explanations. For that, if I could, I would dock a quarter of a star.
