Abstract

The University of Wisconsin-Madison associate professor of metallurgical and mining engineering teaches materials science both on the campus and around Wisconsin, talking and putting on demonstrations before high school and college students, bankers, businessmen, dentists, doctors, secretaries and others. Give him five minutes or a college semester, and he will try to convert you into a knowledgeable user of materials. His approach starts off with familiar basic processes of chemistry and physics and builds from there.
