Elements of Materials Science  :  an Introductory Text for Engineering Students 

 - 2a. ed. 
 - Massachusetts :  Addison Wesley ,  1964 
 - xv: 445 p. 
<br/><br/> This new edition of a well-known introductory materials text reflects recent developments in the field. It requires only a general chemistry back ground and a familiarity with introductory college mathematics. Its aim is to give the prospective engineer, regardless of his future field of specialization, a basic understanding of the structure of mate rials and their behavior under varying conditions. The work emphasizes the principles that govern properties, rather than the properties themselves.
