Great text for learning and reference

As a student in materials science, this is one of best books I have ever read in materials science. The text is kept to a minimum and is easy to read. The figures are large and easy to understand, and the equations are all well explained. Just about every topic in friction and wear is given at least a cursory glance along with listings of more focused literature. This book should be read by all who deal with friction and wear as part of their work or education.
