‘So who will buy this book? Well, our PhD students for a start. I’ve told them all to buy their own copy; at less than £40 for more than 700 pages it’s an absolute snip. Also, in the three weeks I’ve had my free copy I’ve

consulted it four times, all to fruitful effect, in discussions with colleagues, so I’d suggest they get their own as well.

The Material WorldSecond editionR. M. J. Cotterill

Using the cosmos as a backdrop, Rodney Cotterill delivers a fascinating journey of Nature’s materials, from the atom to the living organism. This is a beautifully illustrated, expanded account of the highly praised Cambridge Guide to the Material World. The author seamlessly blends the physics, chemistry and biology of Nature, portraying matter with all its elegance and flaws. Although the book is divided into material types, the author connects concepts and pinpoints commonalities between the inorganic and organic domains. It challenges the reader to question our structured view of the world and whether this limits our scientific endeavour, aptly demonstrated by the new chapter devoted exclusively to the mind. Through the breadth of topics and engaging prose, this book will act as a superb introduction to material science

for students and those intrigued by the material world we live in.

‘Will it not soon be impossible for one person to grasp the breadth of the topics we call science? Not yet. After several delightful hours with Rodney Cotterill’s The Material World, I can confirm that at least one polymath survives.’Peter Goodhew, The Times Educational Supplement

Turbulent FlowsStephen B. PopeCornell University, New York

Graduate text on turbulent flow, an important topic in fluid mechanics.

‘Probably the most popular text in turbulent fluid mechanics for the past thirty years has been Tennekes and Lumley. Now Lumley’s colleague Pope has produced a much more complete work and one that is up to date. Designed as a graduate text, it is a massive work that covers most of what an engineer needs to know about the subject … there is no book that provides as broad coverage as this one and yet provides reasonable depth … There are also problems interspersed throughout the book. They make this an excellent textbook that can be heartily recommended to anyone teaching a course in this subject. it is the best book on the market today that covers the entire field and should be adopted for courses, especially since the paperback edition is priced quite reasonably for the size on the book.’Joel H.

Essential BioinformaticsJin XiongTexas A & M University

This clear and concise introduction to bioinformatics will appeal to undergraduate and graduate students in the life sciences, as well as researchers wishing to develop their knowledge of bioinformatics tools. All key areas are covered including biological databases, sequence alignment, genes and promoter prediction, molecular phylogenetics, structural bioinformatics, genomics and proteomics.

‘Essential Bioinformatics is a welcome addition to this area, by having a broad general approach that I think is particularly suitable for undergraduate

teaching. The advantage of this being a new book is that there is not an overriding focus on structural bioinformatics that was seen in some earlier texts, which allows for a much broader coverage of newer areas like comparative and functional genomics.’http://www.sgm.ac.uk/pubs/micro_today/book_reviews/MTNOV06/MTN06_31.cfm

A Practical Introduction to the Simulation of Molecular SystemsSecond editionMartin J. FieldLaboratoire de Dynamique Moléculaire, Grenoble

Updated edition introducing a wide range of techniques for the simulation of molecular systems at the atomic level. Contains numerous examples and program modules in Python. For researchers and graduate students interested in using atomic-scale molecular simulations. Supplementary material, including the program library and technical information, available through www.cambridge.org/9780521852524.

Review of the first edition: ‘This text straddles the boundary between theory and experiment … Martin Field’s book is aimed at the novice user who is likely to be a graduate student or researcher in computational chemistry or biophysics. The provision of example programs ensures that readers should achieve a reasonable understanding of how simulations are performed and how the programs work … This book is likely to spend much time sitting next to the mouse by a terminal.’ The Times Higher Education Supplement

Chemical Engineering Design and AnalysisAn IntroductionT. Michael DuncanCornell University, New York

and Jeffrey A. ReimerUniversity of California, Berkeley

Introduces the basics of engineering design and analysis for beginning chemical engineering undergraduate students.

‘The style and presentation of this textbook represents a convincingly refreshing approach to teaching fundamental concepts of chemical engineering to undergraduates. With the current popular trend of industrial production engaged firmly in novel materials and biotechnology, there is now an undeniable need for chemical engineering students to be introduced to batch processing, multiple steady-state and cyclic processing applications at a very early stage. The authors’ introduction of these highly relevant concepts is both informative and thorough; far superior to any material I have come across in other entry level undergraduate textbooks.’Ugur Tüzün, Chemistry in Britain

Matrix Analysis for Scientists and Engineers provides a blend of undergraduate- and graduate-level topics in matrix theory and linear algebra.

‘I found Laub’s book a delightful read. It has become the sixth valuable ‘Matrix Analysis’ book on my shelves. As well as being admirably suited for the course at which it is aimed, its conciseness and clarity of presentation, together with the good index, make it easy to use for reference. The book is recommended both as a course text and as a handy guide to the subject.’Nicholas J. Higham, University of Manchester, SIAM Review

Risk assessment theory and practice for graduate engineering students, practising engineers, designers and project managers.

‘This book takes a very interesting approach to the treatment of uncertainty and its role in decision making. The author, who has extensive background in both academia and industry, uses an intuitive argument whenever possible to derive common laws of probability … This approach has a distinct advantage for such use in contrast to the more traditional mathematical foundation, from which most engineering students are discouraged by a perceived lack of applicability. Based on the author’s experience, it seems that the book would fit best into an undergraduate

civil engineering curriculum, since applications are focused on decisions for the built environment.’Journal of Engineering Mechanics
