Corrosion and Protection is an essential guide for mechanical marine and civil engineering
students and also provides a valuable reference for practicing engineers. Bardal combines a
description of practical corrosion processes and problems with a theoretical explanation of the
various types and forms of corrosion with a central emphasis on the connections between
practical problems and basic scientific principles. This well thought-out introduction to
corrosion science with excellent examples and useful tables is also extremely well
illustrated with 167 diagrams and photographs. Readers with a limited background in chemistry
can also find it accessible.
