Professor Emeritus Don H. Morris has coauthored the sixth edition of the book "Mechanics of Materials" with William F. Riley and Leroy D. Sturges that was recently published by John Wiley. This classic text, designed for a first course on mechanics of deformable bodies, has been in existence since 1960 and has been updated to include a new visualization tool "MecMovies". ESM is very proud of such contributions by its faculty, many of which are on display in its seventy-odd number book gallery that can be viewed at http://www.esm.vt.edu/galleries/facpubs/index.php.
