Dr. Sabnis has provided a broad overview of the major failure mechanisms afflicting modern semiconductor devices, and he has compiled a carefully selected list of references for each subject. He has also summarized many of the methods developed over time to evaluate reliability of these devices. I strongly recommend this book to all those*bMboth neophytes and experts*bMinvolved in the design, fabrication, and application of integrated circuits. --From the Foreword by Carl W. Green, Head, IC Test Technology, AT&T Bell Laboratories
