This book treats permanent magnet (hard) materials, magnetically soft materials for low-frequency applications and for high-frequency electronics, magnetostrictive materials, superconductors, magnetic-thin films and multilayers, and ferrofluids. Chapters are dedicated to magnetic recording, the role of magnetism in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and instrumentation for magnetic measurements.
From the reviews:
"This is an advanced work, and though it claims to be for undergraduate as well as graduate study, it goes well beyond what is usually included in undergraduate degrees, primarily because of the sheer volume of material covered and the rigor of the mathematical applications. Included with many sections are problems and solutions."
(E. Kincanon, Gonzaga University in Choice, June 2003)
"This two-volume set, Magnetism, provides a comprehensive overview of magnetic materials. a ] Throughout the text, useful explanatory notes and remarks are included to point out issues such as differences in symbol conventions or special situations in which the discussed treatment does not apply. a ] For scientists and engineers active in this area, the two-volume set serves as a useful reference. a ] the books are well written with good links between chapters. The set should be of much use to both students and practitioners of magnetism." (Yumi Ijiri, MRS Bulletin, December, 2004)
