This book is intended to be a concise and comprehensive coverage of the key ceramic
and glass materials used in modern technology. A group of international experts have
contributed a wide ranging set of chapters that literally covers this field A (Chap. 1)
to Z (Chap. 10). Each chapter focuses on the structure–property relationships for these
important materials and expands our understanding of their nature by simultaneously
discussing the technology of their processing methods. In each case, the resulting understanding of the contemporary applications of the materials provides insights as to their future role in twenty-first century engineering and technology. The book is intended for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and working professionals. Although authored by members of the materials science and engineering community, the book can be useful for readers in a wide range of scientific and engineering fields.
