Physical Metallurgy, Sixth Edition preserves the excellence of the previous editions of this popular work, keeping everything up-to-date and offering definitive, in-depth chapters with superb coverage and clarity of explanations. The book provides comprehensive and in-depth coverage of both ferrous and non-ferrous materials, written by leaders in the respective field, going from fundamental and foundational understanding to a higher level of knowledge. The book expertly integrates fundamental theory with advanced materials characterization techniques. It is an excellent resource for students and early-career metallurgists, while also offering great depth and insight for more experienced readers. The chapters have been revised and expanded, with new chapters on the physical metallurgy of light alloys and titanium alloys, as well as atom probe field ion microscopy, computational metallurgy, and orientational imaging microscopy. Emphasis on sustainability is encouraged throughout, and the volumes incorporate the latest experimental research results and theoretical insights.

David E. Laughlin is the ALCOA Professor of Physical Metallurgy Emeritus, in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at
Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA. He obtained his BS in Metallurgical Engineering from Drexel University in 1969 and his PhD
in Metallurgy and Materials Science from MIT in 1973. He has taught at CMU since 1974. He was the Principal Editor of Metallurgical and
Materials Transactions and has coedited eight books. His research has centered on the structure of materials as observed by electron microscopy, phase transformations, and magnetic materials. He has published
more than 500 peer-reviewed research papers and is a coinventor on 11 US patents. Laughlin is a Fellow of TMS and ASM International.

Kazuhiro Hono is President of the National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) in Tsukuba, Japan. He joined NIMS in 1995 and has
served as a NIMS Fellow, Director of the Research Center for Magnetic and Spintronic Materials, and Executive Vice President of NIMS. He obtained his BS from Tohoku University in 1982 and his PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from the Pennsylvania State University in 1988. His research has centered on the microstructure-property relationships of metallic materials, particularly magnetic materials. He served as Principal Editor of Scripta Materialia and Acta Materialia from 2000 to 2022. Hono is a Fellow of TMS and of the Magnetics Society of Japan.
