The Concise Encyclopedias draw relevant articles from the Encyclopedia of Materials Science and Engineering, the only complete reference work in this rapidly developing field. Where necessary, articles have been revised and new articles have been commissioned to provide current accounts of the most recent developments in each area. Copublished with Pergamon Press.

The Concise Encyclopedia of Composite Materials provides a full and up-to-date account of composite materials, particularly fiber composites. The important mechanical properties of fiber composites are covered and discussed in the context of particulate composites and naturally occurring composite materials. Metal matrix composites and fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resins are also covered.

Review:
F.N. Cogswell
This revised edition, available in paperback, is excellent value when one considers the quality and quantity of the various contributions. It is good for reading and makes splendid browsing; the individual contributions, some sixty-five of them, are first class essays (typically 2,000 to 5,000 words long) on a range of subjects from nanocomposites to plywood.
Composites Manufacturing
S.A. Urry
The book may be used without reference to the parent encyclopedia and the editor, Professor Kelly, has provided an admirable introduction to composite materials for those new to the field. His editorial influence has also ensured that the writing is clear and succinct throughout. The book is enhanced by a comprehensive index. As a result it is equally valuable to the engineering designer and the researcher. This revised edition includes additional material on metallic multilayers, nanocomposites, three-dimensional composites, smart composite systems, failure of composites and recycling. The team of contributors comprises specialists from industry, universities and research establishments in several countries and the book is unrivalled in the field. It is an essential text for everyone concerned with the development and application of composite materials.
The Aeronautical Journal
...of great value to faculty and graduate students as well as those involved in composite materials research.
High Tech Ceramic News/Diamond and Structural Carbon News
J.P. Neville
...this book is a handy reference for students or workers who want to know more about the properties and uses of composites.... An extensive bibliography is provided at the end of each article. The alphabetical arrangement and cross-referencing make this book very easy to read and use.
Choice
Susan B. Ardis
...a good addition to engineering, physics or other libraries that need a relatively inexpensive overview of composites for users to check out.
