Fundamentals of Materials Science and Engineering: An Integrated Approach, 4th Edition

Callister and <b><i>Rethwisch's Fundamentals of Materials Science and Engineering 4th Edition</i></b> continues to take the integrated approach to the organization of topics. That is, one specific structure, characteristic, or property type at a time is discussed for all three basic material types: metals, ceramics, and polymeric materials. This order of presentation allows for the early introduction of non-metals and supports the engineer's role in choosing materials based upon their characteristics. Also discussed are new, cutting-edge materials. Using clear, concise terminology that is familiar to students, Fundamentals presents material at an appropriate level for both student comprehension and instructors who may not have a materials background.
