Why isn't wood weaker that it is? Why isn't steel stronger? Why does glass sometimes shatter & sometimes bend like spring? Why do ships break in half? What is a liquid & is treacle one? All these are questions about the nature of materials. All of them are vital to engineers but also fascinating as scientific problems. During the 250 years up to the 1920s & 1930s they had been answered largely by seeing how materials behaved in practice. But materials continued to do things that they ought" not to have done. Only in the last 40 years have these questions begun to be answered by a new approach. Material scientists have started to look more deeply into the make-up of materials. They have found many surprises; above all perhaps that how a material behaves depends on how perfectly
- or imperfectly
- its atoms are arranged. Using both SI & imperial units Professor Gordon's account of material science is a demonstration of the sometimes curious & entertaining ways in which scientists isolate & solve problems."
