Taking a fresh, interdisciplinary look at materials science and engineering, the most outstanding feature of this text is the author's unique and engaging application-oriented approach. This introduction emphasizes the importance of materials to engineering applications and builds the basis needed to select, modify, or create materials to meet specific criteria. Beginning each chapter with real-life examples, experiments, Chinese folk tales, or other interesting facts, the author wields an expertly crafted treatment that entertains and motivates as much as it informs and educates. He links the discipline to the life sciences and modern developments such as nanomaterials, polymers, and thin films.
