{"product_id":"physical-foundations-of-materials-science-gnter-gottstein-9783540401391","title":"Physical Foundations of Materials Science","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn this vivid and comprehensible introduction to materials science, the author expands the modern concepts of metal physics to formulate basic theory applicable to other engineering materials, such as ceramics and polymers. Written for engineering students and working engineers with little previous knowledge of solid-state physics, this textbook enables the reader to study more specialized and fundamental literature of materials science. Dozens of illustrative photographs, many of them transmission electron microscopy images, plus line drawings, aid developing a firm appreciation of this complex topic. Hard-to-grasp terms such as \"textures\" are lucidly explained - not only the phenomenon itself, but also its consequences for the material properties. This excellent book makes materials science more transparent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e G?ter Gottstein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3540401393\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783540401391\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/07\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 502\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.89lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.26h x 6.42w x 1.29d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2005 pg. 884","brand":"G?ter Gottstein","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43940804165887,"sku":"9783540401391","price":129.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_bc164e4d-44a8-478a-a313-bbdd0b443921.jpg?v=1681449272","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/physical-foundations-of-materials-science-gnter-gottstein-9783540401391","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
