* Authoritative and up-to-date articles from leading experts in the field
* Teaching effective use of advanced analysis and characterization methods for the design of materials
* Examples of materials in which the design concepts have been successfully applied

The nanostructural and microstructural design of materials for a set of targeted mechanical/functional properties is now a recognized field in materials science and engineering.
The importance of the nanoscale effects has been recognized in materials research for over fifty years, but it is only recently that advanced characterization and fabrication methods are enabling scientists to build structures atom-by-atom or molecule-by molecule. The understanding and control of the nanostructure has been, to a large extent, made possible by new atomistic analysis and characterization methods pioneered by transmission electron microscopy. This approach is revolutionizing the investigation of materials. This volume focuses on the effective use of advanced analysis and characterization methods for the design of materials.
