Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - Good Text Very good book for material science introduction. Gives an overview about all different concepts. I think every materials engineer should have it Rating: - In This Third Edition I Have Retained The Objectives And Philosophies "IN THIS THIRD EDITION I HAVE RETAINED THE OBJECTIVES AND PHILOSOPHIES of the first and second editions....." [from the book of the preface] Rating: - A great book! Great book! For material science and engineering fits very well and for beginners, most part of it, it's good too. Rating: - new materiasl applications but... 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. Rating: - Perfect... 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. see more
