The Encyclopdedia of Materials Science and Engineering has been hailed as an important reference source for all scientists and engineers involved with the properties, processing and uses of materials, and especially for teachers of courses in the materials field (Nature); as most suitable for a collection whose audience requires a broad yet detailed knowledge of the field (Physics Today); and as a beautifully produced encyclopedia on a topic with broad applications in all areas of engineering and physics (American Reference Books Annual). Under the direction of Professor Robert Cahn a distinguished editorial board has commissioned over 100 new articles that revise and extend original material from the Encyclopedia and review newly emerging areas of research. Copublished with Pergamon Press.
