"In conclusion, many students and researchers from microengineering to materials sciences may find some or all sections of the book useful; it contains many details, particularly on continuum models of mechanical properties of materials and their coupling to external stimuli. An extensive list of relevant literature is provided for both the experts and students who need to orient themselves in depth in the various fields. In particular, piezoelectric materials and their applications receive ample coverage."Gertjan Koster in: Acta Cryst. (2017), B73, 1196-1197
