Abstract
IN this new edition of his book, Mr. Miller has taken advantage of war-time experience to bring certain sections up to date ; modern aircraft riveting practice in flush riveting and the invaluable pop riveting technique are described, for example. The descriptions of fluxes for soft soldering are considerably expanded and include recommendations for the lead/silver solders and the low-tin solders of B.S.219. Brief details are given of the newer welding processes such as Heliarc, the Elin-Hafergut process and automatic stud-welding machines. Apart from these additions, the book remains substantially the same as in the first edition and is still the only one available covering its specialized field. Mr. Miller has resisted all temptation to extend its scope, wisely preferring to restrict his words to the subjects on which his authority is undoubted.
