This is the ultimate materials engineering text and resource for
students developing skills and understanding of materials
properties and selection for engineering applications. Written by
world class authors, it takes a unique design led-approach which is
broader in scope than other texts, thereby meeting the curriculum
needs of a wide variety of courses in the materials and design
field, from Introduction to Materials Science and Engineering to
Engineering Materials, Materials Processing and Materials in
Design. This new edition retains its design-led focus and strong
emphasis on visual communication while expanding its treatment of
crystallography and phase diagrams and transformations to fully
meet the needs of instructors teaching a first-year course in
materials. Additional teaching resources have been added, including
an interactive online materials science tutorial and online testing
and assessment program with algorithmic exercises that allow one
question template to become hundreds of different questions. The
book is fully linked with the leading materials software package as
used in over 600 academic institutions worldwide as well as
numerous government and commercial engineering departments.
The ultimate materials engineering text and resource: world class
authors; design led-approach, broader scope than other texts; to a
level of detail that is appropriate for undergraduate courses;
innovative visually lead presentation without any loss of academic
rigor or detail; fully linked with the leading materials software
package, as used in over 500 engineering departments.
It is written for students taking undergraduate level courses in
engineering materials, MS&E, manufacturing and design, and
related mechanical engineering courses with a materials science and
processing elective or required course, including aeronautical and
automotive engineering, product and industrial design. It is also
perfect for use by chemical engineers and civil engineers taking
introductory materials science and engineering technology
courses.
A complete introductory materials science and engineering text:
full coverage of materials properties with a true design and
processing emphasis as required by most courses
Unbeatable author team: Professor Mike Ashby, the world's
leading materials selection innovator and author of four other
best-selling materials engineering texts; Dr David Cebon, MD of
Granta Design, the leading material properties software house; and
Dr Hugh Shercliff, head of materials science teaching at the
University of Cambridge, UK.
Printed in full color throughout, extensive end of chapter
examples, fully worked instructor's manual, complete set of
lecture slides based on the images in the book, links to materials
selection software used in over 500 university departments.

Professor Mike Ashby is well known for producing readily understandable materials education texts, and for the innovative use of graphical representation for material properties. This book, now in its second edition, is no exception and explains materials engineering from a design-led approach, as opposed to the more traditional science-led approach. . Useful for reinforcing student learning is the inclusion of over 50 new worked examples, distributed throughout the book. Completely new are the self-contained Guided Learning Units or sections at the end of the book on crystallography, and phase diagrams and phase transformations, including exercises (and unlike the rest of the book with answers). There are also useful links to interactive 'online' tutorials and assessment, reinforcing the strong selfteaching aspects of the book. . [T]he book is aimed primarily at students and teachers of materials science and engineering, although engineering practitioners involved with materials and their selection will also find the extensive use of applications both useful and relevant. -Engineering Designer, (Reviewed by Professor Kevin Edwards)
