Fracture Mechanics Book

[EddyC]

Hi Folks. I am interested in getting a book recommendation on the topic of Fracture Mechanics. I'm looking for a book for someone just starting to learn about the topic, along with real world applications and not just theory.

I believe my "Fracture Mechanics, Fundamentals and Applications" (2nd Ed., T. L. Anderson) is a very good book for both theory and practice. It's one of the few graduate courses where the book is actually useful in the office at times...

David Broek's is another good one
