I am looking for a good book that covers magnetic properties in materials. I've taken E&M (we used Purcell), and it only covered magnetism in materials briefly.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Ashcroft and Mermin has a reasonable section on magnetism. If you are looking for something more detailed, then these are pretty good:

You can look at a few sample pages here:
