3 out of 5 stars Diamonds are forever   November 1, 2004
Newton Ooi (Phoenix, Arizona United States)
The different phases of carbon, such as graphite and diamond, with their unique and often contrasting properties, has continuously intrigued scientists and engineers throughout the last century. This fascination and interest is often manifested in the form of conferences dedicated to the element. This book is the proceedings from one such conference that took place in 1995. The text itself is quite easy to read, as its focus is on mechanical properties; hence little mention of quantum mechanics and band structure. I read through it to glean for useful data and references for my Ph.D. thesis.
