Description
This fifth edition of the highly regarded family of titles that first published in 1965 is now a three-volume set and over 3,000 pages. All chapters have been revised and expanded, either by the fourth edition authors alone or jointly with new co-authors. Chapters have been added on the physical metallurgy of light alloys, the physical metallurgy of titanium alloys, atom probe field ion microscopy, computational metallurgy, and orientational imaging microscopy. The books incorporate the latest experimental research results and theoretical insights. Several thousand citations to the research and review literature are included.
Reviews / Votes
"How does one review The Bible? Editors R.W. Cahn and P. Haasen have succeeded in producing the Physical Metallurgy equivalent. This is the third revision of the famous work, and it represents a major extension to the previous edition with at least 50% more material packed into three very substantial volumes...." --Contemporary Physics"Considering the exactness and extent of the contents, this work represents an advanced textbook, and, at the same time, a suitable handbook for University." --Metallic Materials

David E. Laughlin is the ALCOA Professor of Physical Metallurgy Emeritus, in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at
Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA. He obtained his BS in Metallurgical Engineering from Drexel University in 1969 and his PhD
in Metallurgy and Materials Science from MIT in 1973. He has taught at CMU since 1974. He was the Principal Editor of Metallurgical and
Materials Transactions and has coedited eight books. His research has centered on the structure of materials as observed by electron microscopy, phase transformations, and magnetic materials. He has published
more than 500 peer-reviewed research papers and is a coinventor on 11 US patents. Laughlin is a Fellow of TMS and ASM International. Kazuhiro Hono is President of the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) in Tsukuba, Japan. He joined NIMS in 1995 and has
served as a NIMS Fellow, Director of the Research Center for Magnetic and Spintronic Materials, and Executive Vice President of NIMS. He obtained his BS from Tohoku University in 1982 and his PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from the Pennsylvania State University in 1988. His research has centered on the microstructure-property relationships of metallic materials, particularly magnetic materials. He served as Principal Editor of Scripta Materialia and Acta Materialia from 2000 to 2022. Hono is a Fellow of TMS and of the Magnetics Society of Japan.
