A comprehensive and up-to-date encyclopedia to the fabrication, nature, properties, uses, and history of glass.
The Encyclopedia of Glass Science, Technology, History, and Culture has been designed to satisfy the needs and curiosity of a broad audience interested in the most varied aspects of material that is as old as the universe. As described in over 100 chapters and illustrated with 1100 figures, the practical importance of glass has increased over the ages since it was first man-made four millennia ago. The old-age glass vessels and window and stained glass now coexist with new high-tech products that include for example optical fibers, thin films, metallic, bioactive and hybrid organic-inorganic glasses, amorphous ices or all-solid-state batteries.

In the form of scholarly introductions, the Encyclopedia chapters have been written by 151 noted experts working in 23 countries. They present at a consistent level and in a self-consistent manner these industrial, technological, scientific, historical and cultural aspects. Addressing the most recent fundamental advances in glass science and technology, as well as rapidly developing topics such as extra-terrestrial or biogenic glasses, this important guide:

  • Begins with industrial glassmaking
  • Turns to glass structure and to physical, transport and chemical properties
  • Deals with interactions with light, inorganic glass families and organically related glasses
  • Considers a variety of environmental and energy issues
  • And concludes with a long section on the history of glass as a material from Prehistory to modern glass science

The Encyclopedia of Glass Science, Technology, History, and Culture has been written not only for glass scientists and engineers in academia and industry, but also for material scientists as well as for art and industry historians. It represents a must-have, comprehensive guide to the myriad aspects this truly outstanding state of matter.

Pascal Richet, PhD, is a senior physicist at the Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris. He is mainly interested in the physical and chemical properties of Earth's and industrial materials at high temperatures and pressures, with a special focus on silicate glasses and melts.
