The monograph discusses the elastic, dielectric, and thermal properties of ferroelectric crystals; the standard linear time-dependent electroelastic theory; the non-linear static properties of an elastic dielectric on a variational principle; and the phenomenological theory of the static thermal, elastic, and dielectric properties of a homogeneous material. The book also describes the theory of the static non-linear behavior of an elastic dielectric as well as the phenomenological models for ferroelectricity. Students taking physics courses and practicing physicists will find the book invaluable.
