About the Author

Prof. Mayergoyz received his Master and Ph.D. degrees in the former Soviet Union where he worked as a senior research scientist in the Institute of Cybernetics of Ukranian Academy of Sciences before his emigration to the United States. On his arrival to the United States in 1980, he became a full professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Department of University of Maryland, College Park. He served as a consultant for many years for the Research and Development Center of General Electric Company and has been selected as a visiting research fellow of this center. He has published more than 300 scientific papers and patents as well as eight scientific books. He has been recognized by many awards at the University of Maryland and at the Magnetics Society of IEEE. He is a recognized authority in magnetics which is the area of this book. Giorgio Bertotti is a senior scientist at INRIM, Istituto Nazionale di Ricerca Metrologica (previously known as IEN Galileo Ferraris), in Torino, Italy, where he has been a researcher since 1979. His research interests are in the field of magnetism and magnetic materials, hysteresis modeling, thermodynamics, noise phenomena. He is author of more than 200 scientific articles and of the book "Hysteresis in Magnetism".
