The Inorganic Chemistry of Materials, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 1998
How to Make Things out of Elements

P.J. van der Put offers students an original introduction to materials chemistry that integrates the full range of inorganic chemistry. Technologists who need specific chemical facts to manipulate matter will also find this work invaluable as an easy-to-use reference. The text includes practical subjects of immediate use for materials such as bonding, morphogenesis, and design that more orthodox materials science volumes often leave out.
