If you're interested in learning more about materials science and engineering, this book can serve as a valuable resource. However, if you're looking for information on lifestyle and entertainment, I hope the examples above illustrate how materials science and engineering impact our daily lives. Polymers (Plastics): across materials
Structural Analysis: Chapters on Crystals (atomic order), Disorder in solid phases, and Microstructures . and polymers in isolation
across materials. Rather than teaching metals, ceramics, and polymers in isolation, Van Vlack treats their structures and properties generically to provide a cohesive foundation for engineering students. Google Books Key Themes
A material's macro-properties begin at the atomic level. Van Vlack categorizes materials based on their bonding:
