Editorial Review:
Provides a comprehensive introduction to the mechanical behaviour of solid polymers. Extensively revised and updated throughout, the second edition now includes new material on mechanical relaxations and anisotropy, composites modelling, non-linear viscoelasticity, yield behaviour and fracture of tough polymers.
The accessible approach of the book has been retained with each chapter designed to be self contained and the theory and applications of the subject carefully introduced where appropriate. The latest developments in the field are included alongside worked examples, mathematical appendices and an extensive reference. - Fully revised and updated throughout to include all the latest developments in the field
- Worked examples at the end of the chapter
- An invaluable resource for students of materials science, chemistry, physics or engineering studying polymer science

Rating:  - Review of An Introduction to the Mechanical Properties of Solid Polymers
It wasn't great, but it was a required book for the class I took, so I suppose it was everything I needed. That's about all I can say. I actually barely read anything in the class.
Rating:  - A reader
This book is a good introduction to understanding the mechanical properties of solid polymers from both a theoretical and practical viewpoint. It is suitable for university students with some knowledge of the physical properties of polymers but advanced enough to be used in a graduate course. This is book is a much more manageable version of a previous book by I.M. Ward, "Mechanical Properties of Solid Polymers". It has been useful as basic reference and provides further references ...
