An introduction to materials science /
Materials science has undergone a revolutionary transformation in the past two decades. It is an interdisciplinary field that has grown out of chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering departments. In this book, authors provide an introduction to the field, one that emphasizes a qualitative under...
