Abstract
Sign-switching refers to materials that can exhibit both positive and negative properties in situ as a result of changing loading direction or opposing changes in environmental conditions, without active control or the need impose changes to the microstructural architecture. Two concepts for sign-switching are briefly introduced, microstructural reshape and microstructural duality, which are elaborated in the remaining chapters of the book.
