'Computational Design of Engineering Materials - an ambitious title for an ambitious book! But the authors match that expectation! They carefully explain atomistic models like density functional theory and molecular dynamics simulations before going to mesoscale approaches like cellular automaton, the CALPHAD, multi-phase-field and the phase-field-crystal methods. This fundamental part of the book is complemented by several chapters addressing case studies. They are selected from different materials like steels, Al- and Mg-alloys and superalloys and also from examples of different applications like hard coatings or energy materials. The book concludes with a section on future development focusing on ICME (Integrated Computational Materials Engineering) and MGI (Materials Genome Initiative). A 'must have' for students and engineer of the material community.' Georg J. Schmitz, Access e.V
