We had to buy this book for school and it is fantastic! Really goes through a lot of materials, and is well documented, current and applicable to design applications.

When I was caught without a book for a test, I figured I would try amazon. I had never tried them before and am always doubty about buying things online. But the whole process was very easy and I ended up getting the book the next day, even when I ordered the two-day delivery. Overall, I was very pleased with my purchase.
