This book was not the easiest to read. I also had issues when looking at the example problems. All of the steps are not explained for how they get the solution, and in some cases when I plugged the numbers in my calculator what I get does not match up with the book's solution.

It said it was used, but looks so so new! quite the interesting textbook if you have an interest in materials science and biology

When I ordered the book, the description said it is a new book but the book was used.

Goes in-depth about material selections and their applications.

I was required to get this book for school!
