Review
." . .a considerable achievement. . .will be of great value to those in the chemical community who have to tackle the varied, real-life problems of materials science and want to obtain an over- view of the techniques available. Every library should have a copy." ---Journal of the American Chemical Society ." . .should serve as a compendium to which the user can turn for quick and reliable answers arising in the course of his or her work and should prove a valuable resource." ---Silicates Industriels (Journal of the Belgian Ceramic Society)
Product Description
