A obra “Overall Aspects of Non-Traditional Glasses: Synthesis, Properties and Applications”, com edição de M. Clara Gonçalves (docente do DEQ, Técnico) e H. Cristina Vasconcelos (Universidade dos Açores), foi recentemente lançado no mercado internacional pela Bentham Science.

Trata-se de um livro que reúne contribuições de especialistas nacionais e internacionais, na área do vidro não convencional, e que foi recebida com grande entusiasmo pelos especialistas na área.

M. Clara Gonçalves, havia já editado anteriormente, em conjunto com Fernanda Margarido, a obra “Materials for Construction and Civil Engineering: Science, Processing, and Design”, publicado pela Springer em 2015.
“This book represents an important contribution to the specialized literature in the field of Glass Science. With its broad scope and variety of topics covered, the book will be beneficial for advanced students, researchers and professionals working in the broad areas of glass science and technology.”
Aldo R. Boccaccini – Head of Institute of Biomaterials, University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany, and Editor-in-Chief, Materials Letters

“I strongly recommend this book to all young and older scientists interested in field of Glass Materials. It is one of the rare books covering all functional glasses and their present applications in just 7 chapters. It, therefore, offers a valuable update of the state of our knowledge in this field.”
