Writers：FrederickW. Smith, Joel I.Gersten  (Both from The City College of the City University of New York)

Publishing House：John Wiley & SonsInc
Content introduction：A comprehensive introduction to the structure, properties, andapplications of materials, this title provides the first unified treatment forthe broad subject of materials. Authors Gersten and Smith use a fundamentalapproach to define the structure and properties of a wide range of solids onthe basis of the local chemical bonding and atomic order present in thematerial. Emphasizing the physical and chemical origins of material properties,the book focuses on the most technologically important materials being utilizedand developed by scientists and engineers. Appropriate for use in advancedmaterials courses, "The Physics and Chemistry of Materials" providesthe background information necessary to assimilate the current academic andpatent literature on materials and their applications. Problem sets,illustrations, and helpful tables complete this well-rounded new treatment.
Five sections cover these important topics:
1、Structure of materials, including crystal structure, bonding insolids, diffraction and the reciprocal lattice, and order and disorder insolids;
2、Physical properties of materials, including electrical, thermal,optical, magnetic, and mechanical properties;
3、Classes of materials, including semiconductors, superconductors,magnetic materials, and optical materials in addition to metals, ceramics,polymers, dielectrics, and ferroelectrics.
4、A section on surfaces, thin films, interfaces, and multilayersdiscusses the effects of spatial discontinuities in the physical and chemicalstructure of materials.
5、A section on synthesis and processing examines the effects ofsynthesis on the structure and properties of various materials.
This book is enhanced by a Web-based supplementthat offers advanced material together with an entire electronic chapter on thecharacterization of materials. “The Physics and Chemistry of Materials” is acomplete introduction to the structure and properties of materials for studentsand an excellent reference for scientists and engineers.

这是国外的教材吗？

哇！！

恩恩，是的@龙骑士

赞，好牛啊

看不懂诶，我们也是这本教材

材料物理化本身就难，而且这本书又是全英文，同感
