Add to basketAn-Chou Yeh is a Professor of Materials Science and Engineering at National Tsing Hua University and the Director of the High Entropy Materials Center in Taiwan. He specializes in alloy design, high-entropy alloys, superalloys, thermo-mechanical processing, single-crystal growth, and additive manufacturing. He earned his MEng from Imperial College London (First Class Honours in Aerospace Materials Engineering) and his PhD in Materials Science and Metallurgy from the University of Cambridge. He previously worked at Japan’s NIMS on advanced Ni-based superalloys. A pioneer in high-entropy superalloys, he has received several honors, including the Marcus A. Grossman Young Author Award from ASM International, the Excellent Young Engineer Award from CSME Taiwan, the Mercator Fellowship from the German DFG, and the Excellent Young Academic Researcher Award from MRS-T Taiwan.
Tsai-Fu Chung is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University (NYCU). He specializes in employing advanced electron microscopy―including atomic-level Cs-corrected TEM and 4D-STEM techniques―to unravel the microstructure-property relationships in structural materials. His research has made significant contributions to the field of high-entropy alloys (HEAs), with a particular focus on the strengthening mechanisms and deformation behaviors of FCC-based HEAs under extreme environments, such as cryogenic temperatures and high strain rates. Beyond HEAs, his expertise extends to high-strength aerospace aluminum alloys and super-bainitic steels. Prior to joining NYCU, he held postdoctoral positions at National Taiwan University. He is a recipient of the National Applied Research Laboratories Outstanding Achievement Award and multiple Young Scientist Awards for his work in microscopy and physical metallurgy.
Jien-Wei Yeh is a pioneering materials scientist whose expertise spans aluminum and magnesium alloys, metal matrix composites, metallic glasses, coatings, reciprocating extrusion, and high-entropy materials (HEMs). Since 1995, he has led groundbreaking research that redefined alloy design by proposing material compositions beyond traditional boundaries, unlocking vast compositional possibilities across the Periodic Table. He coined and defined “high-entropy alloys (HEAs),” established their four core effects, and laid the theoretical foundation for this rapidly expanding field. His work further extended high-entropy concepts to ceramics, polymers, and composites, catalyzing global development of high-entropy materials. He has been elected as an academician in Academia Sinica, and has received many prestigious awards, including the Executive Yuan Award for Outstanding Science and Technology Contribution (2021) and the Taiwan Presidential Scientific Award (2025). In Stanford’s global rankings in scientific influence, he ranked second worldwide in Materials.
Devesh Misra is the Dean of College of Engineering, and a Professor from the Department of Biomedical Engineering and Department of Mechanical, Robotics, and Industrial Engineering, Lawrence Technological University. He earned his metallurgical engineering degree from IIT (BHU) and his PhD from the University of Cambridge. He began his career at India’s Defense Metallurgical Research Laboratory, later holding major academic leadership roles including endowed chair, center director, department chair, and graduate program director at multiple R1 universities. His work spans mentoring students and faculty, building interdisciplinary research programs, fostering global exchanges, leading university–industry partnerships, and engaging alumni and community networks. From 2001–2024 he directed numerous federally and industrially funded R&D projects. He also pioneered project-based education and continues to promote innovative, cross-disciplinary learning. He has published over 1000 peer reviewed articles in journals.

We accept return for those books which are received damamged. Though we take appropriate care in packaing to avoid such situation.
If you are a consumer you can cancel the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
INFORMATION REGARDING THE RIGHT OF CANCELLATION
Statutory Right to cancel
You have the right to cancel this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The cancellation period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right to cancel, you must inform us, Books Puddle, 244 Madison Ave, Suite # 405, 10016, New York, New York, U.S.A., +1 7183015977, of your decision to cancel this contract by a clear statement (e.g. a letter sent by post, fax or e-mail). You may use the attached model cancellation form, but it is not obligatory. You can also electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the cancellation deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right to cancel before the cancellation period has expired.
Effects of cancellation
If you cancel this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to cancel with contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to us or Books Puddle, 244 Madison Ave, Suite # 405, 10016, New York, New York, U.S.A., +1 7183015977, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your cancellation from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of cancellation
