"This book collates the work of fifty able researchers and should appeal to all studying high temperature materials and applications at the highest level."––Peter C. Gasson, CEng, MIMechE, FRAeS, from The Aeronautical Journal, September 2014 "The book addresses a wide variety of topics, spanning from synthesis of materials for high temperature applications, to characterization, application and challenges. In that aspect, it offers in one volume reference material for now and the future. … a valuable book to have."––Yiannis Pontikes, KU Leuven, Belgium "The main strengths of the book are those chapters written by clear experts in the field, for example, Navrotsky (High Temperature Chemistry and Thermodynamics) and Smialek and Jacobson (Oxidation of High-Temperature Aerospace Materials). ...This book covers an interesting mix of high temperature materials and high temperature devices that would be useful to engineer designing and fabricating equipment or facilities for high temperature applications. I am not aware of any other books with this particular mix of materials/devices for high temperature application."––Elizabeth Opila, University of Virginia, Charlottesville
