on properties rather than classes of materials. Schaffer's Science and Design of Engineering Materials, 2nd Edition will now be complemented by an e-Text. An e-Text is pdf. files of the mian text on CD-ROM. The entire contents of the Materials in Focus CD-ROM, which has previously complemented the book are also on the e-Text. Because the text and the Materials in Focus CD-ROM are now together on one CD-ROM, students are able to move back and forth between the two seamlessly. Instructors will benefit from the e-Text because they will better be able to tie the text material to lectures and homework problems.
