Amorphous inorganic solids are of paramount importance in the development of novel advanced materials. This work provides information on the amorphous and glass-like state, materials systems, as well as on properties and applications of amorphous materials. Copious literature citations enable the reader to easily investigate specific areas in more depth. Researchers and graduate students working in the field should benefit from this revised and updated text.
