Written by a world-renowned expert, this text addresses both theoretical and practical aspects of phase transformation in alloys. It examines change in atomic structure and morphology caused by ordering, strain-induced ordering, strain-controlled decomposition, and strain-induced coarsening, applying solid-state theoretical concepts to structure problems. 1983 edition. Reprint of the John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 1983 edition.
