Abstract
A BOOK which is forty years old can claim to have established itself as useful. In spite of the fact that large additions have been made in many sections, the total length remains less than 400 pages, a sign that the matter has been condensed. In this edition new sections have been added on pyrometry, metallography and foundry work, and additions made in the sections dealing with fuel, electric furnaces, coking plant and other melting and smelting processes.
