Review

"....I spent 25 years with Westinghouse research and find your coverages of the electronics areas to be superior to most Material Science texts and very realistic."

From the Back Cover

Milton Ohring's Engineering Materials Science integrates the scientific nature and modern applications of all classes of engineering materials. This comprehensive introductory textbook will provide undergraduate engineering students with the fundamental background needed to understand the science of structure-property relationships, and will address the engineering concerns of materials selection in design, the processing of materials into useful products, and the degradation and failure of materials in service. Specific topics include: physical and electronic structure; thermodynamics and kinetics; processing; mechanical, electrical, magnetic, and optical properties; degradation, failure; and reliability.

The author has taught introductory courses in materials science and engineering in both academia and industry (AT&T Bell Laboratories) and has also written the well-received book, The Materials Science of Thin Films (Academic Press).
Key Features:
* Provides a modern treatment of materials exposing the interrelated themes of structure, properties, processing, and performance.
* Includes a graphically and computationally oriented, interactive computer disk containing nine modules dealing with struture, phase diagrams, diffusion, and mechanical and electronic properties.
* Fundamentals are stressed. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

This review is from: Engineering Materials Science (Hardcover)

I used this text in my 3rd semester Materials class at Stevens Institute of Technology (the school at which Professor Ohring currently teaches at). I liked the overall structure of the book--the material was presented in a rather orderly fashion, having each new concept build upon earlier concepts/methods/procedures that were touched upon. At times however, I feel the material presented became too deep for an introductory level Materials course. I had a hard time distinguishing the core material and theory from the many specialized, specific examples and applications discussed. At times, I became exasperated and despondent because I could not fully understand the concept that was being treated. I feel that this would be better used for a more advanced level class than an introductory
