Dislocations were invented some 30 years ago to explain the low strength of crystalline solids compared to theoretical estimates. Although occasional experimental results appeared in theintervening time, it is only within the last ten years or so that direct proof of the existence of disloca-tions has been obtained. Many theoretical concepts have been justified and new experimental results have given fresh impetus to theoretical work. This book appeals at a par-ticularly appropriate and interesting time for dislocation theory. Quoting from the foreword:“Perhaps the most striking contribution to the conference dealt with the ob-servation of dislocations, which formed the subject of the first morning’s discussion. Photographs of dislocations, slipband formation, Frank-Read sources, prismatic dis-locations, and even motion pictures of dislocation motion were shown. Here was remarkable and breathtaking con-firmation of much previous theoretical work, and a wealth of new experimental material which has given the experi-mentalist a period of supremacy.’’This book includes the proceedings, discussions and post-conference remarks of a small international conference on the mechanical aspects of dislocations. Forty-two papers, covering a wide range of interest, are presented by a cross-section of excellent investigators. The material covered is not only required reading for anyone immediately interested in mechanical properties, but might well be used by others as an initiation into the rapidly evolving field. Much sig-nificant recent work is covered and the bibliographies are extensive and include the necessary background material. The book has been divided into eight sections: I. Direct Observation of Dislocations; II. Deformation of Pure Single Crystals; III. Work Hardening and Recovery; IV. Alloy Crystals, Impurities, Yield Point Phenomena; V. Dislocation Damping and Fatigue; VI. Theory of Dislocations; VII. Whiskers and Thin Crystals; and VIII. Radiation Damage. The classification of papers under these headings is necessarily somewhat arbitrary since material included in any particular section often contains information that would apply to other sections. Some duplication naturally occurs but is usually a matter of com-plementary work.
