Ceramics have progressed from ancient bulk materials in pottery, construction, and decoration to a multitude of modern applications requiring thermal and chemical stability, durability and resistance to wear in environments and conditions under which other material classes cannot serve adequately. Ceramics Science and Technology illuminates this exciting material class from all sides for a wide audience ranging from materials scientists and engineers to chemists,biochemists, physicists and medical researchers.
