We welcome your suggestions for inclusion in this list, especially texts in use outside the United States. Please e-mail the information to us at Book Suggestions or send snail mail to Magnetics & Materials LLC, 4785 County Road 33, Honeoye, NY 14471, USA.
Web sites listing major scientific publishers include: Wikipedia and Piero Scaruffi's site.
Comments are offered for some of the books. However, the absence of a comment should not be interpreted negatively - it may only show inadequate familiarity with the text.
Please note that some of these texts are out-of-print. However, book dealers can often find used copies.
This is a long list, but you can search for any word on the page by typing Ctl+f which causes a search box to open (at bottom left of the window in Firefox and at the top right of the window in Chrome). Then enter the word you wish to find in the search box. Use the down and up arrows next to the box to find additional incidences of the word. If the box turns light red, that word has not been found anywhere on the page.

Advances in Permanent Magnetism; Rollin J. Parker; John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 1990; ISBN: 0471822930
• Comment: This is one of only a couple of books that strikes a balance between technical content and practical application. It should probably be in every magnetician's library. Published in 1990, it is adequately recent to include content on rare earth magnets.
|
Improving the Properties of Permanent Magnets; Editor; Elsevier Science, 1991; ISBN: 1851666109
|
Modern Permanent Magnets; J.J. Croat and J. Ormerod Editors; Elsevier Science, 2022; ISBN: 978-0-323-88658-1
• Comment: A very recent publication with chapters written by some of the leading scientists and engineers in the permanent magnet space. Full of historical information, recent material developments, manufacturing know-how and explanations of applications.
|
Permanent Magnet Design and Application Handbook, 2nd Edition; Lester Moskowitz; Krieger Publishing Co., Melbourne, Florida, 1995; ISBN: 0894647687
• Comment: The book had been offered in two versions. The complete book (961 pages) with reddish-brown cover includes an extensive set of permanent magnet product data. These older materials may be of limited interest except in supplying legacy applications and matching specs with modern materials. Both the short and complete texts contain extensive application guidance.
