Materials Science is one of the subjects in which considerable advances have been made, both in
theoretical understanding and in experimental work, over the last few decades. To teach this subject for
undergraduate students whose background is spotty, the major stumbling block proved to be the lack of
suitable text books to supplement the lectures. Most of the available books, excellent though they are, rely heavily on the use of concepts completely alien to first or second year science and engineering students, and are largely aimed to cater the needs of post graduate students and research scholars. The main book of the first author on Solid State Physics also belongs to the above said category. The author had the privilege of going through the recent changes introduced in the curriculum and syllabi of undergraduate courses in colleges affiliated to different universities spread all over the county. The inclusion of the fascinating subject Materials Science as a core paper for the undergraduate courses in physics, chemistry, applied sciences, engineering and technology in recent years by a number of universities in India inspired Dr. Pillai to bring out a small book in the present form and format to cater the present day needs, and thereby to improve the workaholic culture and also to enhance the grip of the undergraduate students whose background or pre-requisite in this vital area is not in abundance. It is for this purpose this book is written.
