It is written for the graduate student and the new investigator entering the fracture field as well as the experienced scientist who has not used the dislocation approach. The dislocation mechanics needed to find the dislocation density fields of crack tip plastic zones is developed in detail.

I was accidentally given this book, and boy was it challenging to read.

I had no experience in materials, nor material sciences, and needless to say much of this book went over my head.
I still enjoyed it, and there were even some jokes.
I was able to get the knowledge I needed from it, as it was clearly and neatly written.

It is a difficult book to read, if you are uneducated in materials sciences, but not impossible.
