Covering basic physical concepts, experimental methods, and applications, this
book is an indispensable text on the fascinating science of magnetism, and an
invaluable source of practical reference data.
Accessible, authoritative, and assuming undergraduate familiarity with
vectors, electromagnetism and quantum mechanics, this textbook is well suited
to graduate courses. Emphasis is placed on practical calculations and numer-
ical magnitudes – from nanoscale to astronomical scale – focussing on mod-
ern applications, including permanent magnet structures and spin electronic
devices.
Each self-contained chapter begins with a summary, and ends with exercises
and further reading. The book is thoroughly illustrated with over 600 figures to
help convey concepts and clearly explain ideas. Easily digestible tables and data
sheets provide a wealth of useful information on magnetic properties. The 38
principal magnetic materials, and many more related compounds, are treated in
detail.
