Description: Physical Properties of Materials, Third Edition by Mary Anne White Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description New topics include references to the latest research topics in materials science and engineering, such as boron nitride nanotubes, new cloaking technologies, new energy storage materials, and materials for renewable energy capture. It now features a glossary at the end of the book, making it a useful reference as well as an excellent textbook. Publisher Description Designed for advanced undergraduate students and as a useful reference book for materials researchers, Physical Properties of Materials, Third Edition establishes the principles that control the optical, thermal, electronic, magnetic, and mechanical properties of materials. Using an atomic and molecular approach, this introduction to materials science offers readers a wide-ranging survey of the field and a basis to understand future materials. The author incorporates comments on applications of materials science, extensive references to the contemporary and classic literature, and 350 end-of-chapter problems. In addition, unique tutorials allow students to apply the principles to understand applications, such as photocopying, magnetic devices, fiber optics, and more.This fully revised and updated Third Edition includes new materials and processes, such as topological insulators, 3-D printing, and more information on nanomaterials. The new edition also now adds Learning Goals at the end of each chapter and a Glossary with more than 500 entries for quick reference. Author Biography Mary Anne White is a materials research scientist and writer, and highly recognized educator and communicator of science. Mary Anne White presently holds the distinguished title of Harry Shirreff Professor of Chemical Research (Emerita) at Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, where she has been since 1983, after receiving a BSc in Honors Chemistry from the University of Western Ontario, a PhD in Chemistry from McMaster University, and a postdoctoral fellowship at Oxford University. From 2002 to 2006, she was the founding director of the Institute for Research in Materials at Dalhousie University, and from 2010 to 2016 she was director of the multidisciplinary graduate program, Dalhousie Research in Energy, Advanced Materials and Sustainability: DREAMS. She has been Professor (Emerita) since 2017, and continues her research and writing. Mary Annes research area is energetics and thermal properties of materials. She has made significant contributions to understanding how heat is stored and conducted through materials. Her work has led to new materials that can convert waste heat to energy, and materials that can trap solar energy. Mary Annes research contributions have been recognized by national and international awards. Mary Anne is an author of 200 research papers, several book chapters, and this book, "Physical Properties of Materials." She has trained more than 40 graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, and more than 70 undergraduate research students.Mary Anne enjoys sharing her knowledge with students and with the general public. She is especially well known for presenting clear explanations of difficult concepts. Mary Annes outstanding abilities as an educator have been recognized by the Union Carbide Award for Chemical Education from the Chemical Institute of Canada. Mary Anne has given more than 150 invited presentations at conferences, universities, government laboratories and industries around the world.Mary Anne has been active throughout her career in bringing science to the general public. This includes: helping establish a hands-on science centre; many presentations for schools, the general public and others (including a lecture for Members of Canadas Parliament and Senate); booklets on science activities for children (published by the Canadian Society for Chemistry); national organizer of National Chemistry Week; more than 150 articles for educators or the general public; appearances on television. For 14 years she was a regular (monthly) contributor on CBC Radio where she and a colleague fielded listeners science questions, live on air. For her contributions to public awareness of science, Mary Anne was awarded the 2007 McNeil Medal of the Royal Society of Canada. She holds three honorary doctorates, and is an Officer of the Order of Canada.
