Covering basic physical concepts, experimental methods, and applications, this book is an indispensable text on the fascinating science of magnetism, and an invaluable source of practical reference data. Accessible, authoritative, and assuming undergraduate familiarity with vectors, electromagnetism and quantum mechanics, this textbook is well suited to graduate courses. Emphasis is placed on practical calculations and numerical magnitudes - from nanoscale to astronomical scale - focussing on modern applications, including permanent magnet structures and spin electronic devices. Each self-contained chapter begins with a summary, and ends with exercises and further reading. The book is thoroughly illustrated with over 600 figures to help convey concepts and explain ideas clearly. Easily digestible tables and data sheets provide a wealth of useful information on magnetic properties. The thirty-eight principal magnetic materials, and many more related compounds, are treated in detail.

A lot of material in it, but it definitely lacks pedagogy.

Magnetism and Magnetic Materials by J. M. D. Coey --- Enthusiasm in learning Magnetism and its application is certainly the remaining readers feedback ! The text is structured in fifteen chapters, from a general overview until more complex topics such as applications to electrochemistry or cosmic magnetism. Such a broad spectrum of subjects is a choice explained by the author for suggesting the study of magnetism in a global context, not not based on concepts and applications but also on social and economic impact. At the end of each chapter, the reader is invited for Further Readings as well as as well as tackling several problems carefully chosen and extremely useful for a suitable understanding. No specific prerequisite is required, which represents a valuable approach of Magnetism from students having diverse backgrounds. Obviously a minimum of basic understanding in quantum mechanics is expected, and the author intoduces the notions in a consistent and elegantly structured way. This approach has to be pointed out especially in this domain when readers are often discouraged! In addition to abundant illustrations ideally following the concepts and applications, numerical values are significantly accompanying the discussions. Much more than an introductory book, Magnetism and Magnetic Materials by J. M. D. Coey fulfills a gap in this editorial domain and and makes you eager to learn more and ask for more in depth developments ! For these reasons, I highly recommend this textbook for upper undergraduate, postgraduate and engineering students. Dr. Thierry-Philippe Picornell - Switzerland -
