Principles of Metallurgy. E-book. Formato PDF - 9780259630425

The Author's work on Elementary Metallurgy having been received with considerable favour by Teachers and Students of Metallurgy, he has been encouraged to produce the present volume, which is an attempt to present a more extended view of the principles of Metallurgy, including, as far as possible, the new theories which have been introduced in recent years.

For those who have not ready access to the Journals of the Scientific and Industrial Societies, or the time to study minutely the great mass of detailed information contained therein, the abridged accounts presented in this book will, it is hoped, be found useful.

It also aims at giving in a simple and succinct form the views of modern Metallurgists, and the methods of procedure in the extraction of various metals from their ores, with the uses and properties of the same when isolated.

For convenience of study and as a means of ready reference the work is divided into a number of chapters, where information of an allied kind is brought together.
