Excerpt
Magnetism and materials is a broad topic, and thus it is no surprise Professor Krishnan’s book looking to cover the subject is itself broad, expansive, and … well heavy; running to 794 numbered pages. The book includes sections on basics of magnetism, types of magnetism in materials, imaging, and several chapters on magnetism as it appears in specific applications. The book consists of 14 chapters.
