This is an advanced text for higher degree materials science students and researchers concerned with the strength of highly brittle covalent-ionic solids, principally ceramics. It presents a unified continuum, microstructural and atomistic treatment of modern fracture mechanics. The underlying theme of the book is the Griffith energy-balance concept of crack propagation.
