Concrete is an isotropic material with different strength properties with respect to the type of imposed loadings.
By inserting the upper polarizes between crossed polarizes.
An isotropic material has properties which are independent of the direction in which they are measured whereas in an anisotropic material the properties do depend on the direction .
An anisotropic material is a material which does not behave the same way in all directions. Take wood for example. Wood is very strong along the grain. Against the grain, however, it will easily break. The opposite of an anisotropic material is an isotropic material. Most metals (steel, aluminum) are isotropic materials. They respond the same way in all directions.
Replace the scalar pressure P by 1/3 times the trace of the tensor pressure, e.g. \beta = 1/3 (P_xx + P_yy + P_zz) / (B^2 / 2 \mu_0) . In the isotropic case P_xx = P_yy = P_zz and you get the usual definition.

anisotropic are the bright bands in the muscle tissue while isotropic are the dark bands when view under polarised light.

It is the same everywhere and in all directions.
Bakelite is optically isotropic.
Aluminium and steel are e.g. of isotropic materials.
Minerals appear in many different ways. Opaque minerals do not allow light to pass through them. Isotropic minerals allow light to pass through it the same way no matter how the mineral is held. Anisotropic minerals reflects light depending up how the grains lay.

An isotropic material is one which looks the same in every direction. We cannot define any special direction using the material properties. In other words, none of the properties depend the orientation; it is perfectly rotationally symmetric. Note that in order to be isotropic the material must be homogenous on the length scale of interest, ie the same at every point in the material. For instance, rubber is a very isotropic material. Take a rubber ball, and it will feel the same and bounce the same however you rotate it. On the other hand, wood is an anisotropic material: hit it with an axe and it will take more force to break of you are cutting across the grain than along it. (Remember we're thinking about the material rather than the shape of the object.)
