This review is from: Handbook of Case Histories in Failure Analysis Volume 2 (Hardcover)

More well-written case studies worth reading. It's too bad there is no preview for these books. It's hard to get anyone to shell out $100+ without knowing what they are getting. I choose to read these at the local univ library. Enjoy.
