Introduction to Magnetic Materials, 2nd Edition covers the basics of magnetic quantities, magnetic devices, and materials used in practice. While retaining much of the original, this revision now covers SQUID and alternating gradient magnetometers, magnetic force microscope, Kerr effect, amorphous alloys, rare-earth magnets, SI Units alongside cgs units, and other up-to-date topics. In addition, the authors have added an entirely new chapter on information materials. The text presents materials at the practical rather than theoretical level, allowing for a physical, quantitative, measurement-based understanding of magnetism among readers, be they professional engineers or graduate-level students.

The Late B. D. Cullity was a group leader for the ManhattanProject in WWII, and then became professor of metallurgicalengineering at Notre Dame University. He is best known for twowidely used textbooks, Elements of X-Ray Diffraction and this book,Introduction to Magnetic Materials. His major research interestswere in the use of x-ray diffraction to measure lattice strains andin magnetostrictive phenomena.
C. D. Graham worked at the General Electric ResearchLaboratory for fifteen years before moving in 1969 to theDepartment of Materials Science and Engineering at the Universityof Pennsylvania. He has published works on magnetic domainstructure, anisotropy, thin films, permanent magnets, amorphousalloys, and magnetic measurements, plus several book chapters andthree encyclopedia articles.
