Description
The completely updated, Fundamentals of Inorganic Glasses, Third Edition is a comprehensive reference in the field of glass science and engineering, covering numerous significant advances in glass science since the publication of the Second Edition edition in 2006. The Third Edition edition has been updated with the most recent advances in glass physics and chemistry, as well as discussions of new ground-breaking applications of glassy materials. This work is suitable for upper level glass science courses, as well as for professional glass scientists and engineers at industrial and government labs, and includes a clear discussion of fundamental concepts, chapter-ending problem sets, an emphasis on key ideas, and timely notes on suggested readings. For professional scientists and engineers, the field of glass science cuts across a number of disciplines, including materials science and engineering, ceramic engineering, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, physics, chemistry, and geosciences, and Fundamentals of Inorganic Glasses provides the breadth required of a comprehensive reference, offering comprehensive coverage of the composition, structure, and properties of inorganic glasses.
