Only a few of the available books on tribology contain the wealth of data and information that Lubrication, Friction, and Wear provides. The material is very practical in nature and is in a form directly usable by engineers involved with design and troubleshooting on tribological devices.

This classic work, edited by the world-renowned tribologist Professor Kragelsky, has been republished with the benefit of additional interpretative material by Professor Nikolai Myshkin and Dr Mark I. Petrokovets, to provide a valuable and unique reference source. The extra data, along with the original material, make this comprehensive and authoritative volume a "must have" for all tribologists. Tribology – Lubrication, Friction, and Wear brings together information that is not readily available elsewhere. Some of the basic tribological theories developed by the authors differ from the equivalent theories found in "the West", and having these alternatives documented in one volume is invaluable.
