Still (& for years to come) the standard reference to this interdisciplinary field. Originally published in 18 clothbound volumes during the 1990s, MS&T is a crucial guide to the science and technology of metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, semiconductors, and composites. The present paper edition is compacted to eleven volumes of some 14,000 pages. Cahn, the late P. Hassen, and E.J. Kramer have edited the work of dozens of the top materials scientists into meaty, concise summaries of the key knowledge of materials properties, processing, applications, and general phenomena. Major topics include structures, characterization, electronic and magnetic properties of metals and ceramics, electronic structure and properties of semiconductors, plastic deformation and fracture, structure and properties of: nonferrous alloys; of ceramics; of glasses and amorphous materials; and of nuclear materials. The set ends with two volumes on processing of metals & alloys and, last, of ceramics. A classic at a bargain price. Annotation ♭2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
