3 of 3 people found the following review helpful

3.0 out of 5 stars Needs more examples., Mar 9 2007

By Music Fan - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Engineering Materials 1: An Introduction to Properties, Applications and Design (Paperback)

The book has a lot of helpful material but is poor in examples. The problem set in each chapter is harder than the average problem set in a book and usually more information from another source is needed to find out the solution.
