Ferromagnetism

Summary: Very useful magnetic data book
Review: This book gives a huge amount of magnetic properties data (saturation field density, permeability, magnetisation etc) for metals such as Iron and nickel, but more importantly, a vast magnetic data for a wide range of Fe-Ni alloys and Fe-Co-Ni. Also it shows the effect of heat treatment and mechanical work on these properties.

If I recall right, this book first published in 1951.

Summary: lots of information
Review: This book gives one all the information one needs to get a good handle on magnetic properties of materials and how the latter vary as a function of almost any parameter one can think of.
The only problem is its age, which makes the chapters dealing with magnetic theory and measurement techniques a bit outdated (this explains the 4 stars). However, these last two subjects are treated extensively in other more recent books.
Nevertheless, this a very useful book to have which covers all the aspects of ferromagnetism in a clear and concise manner.
