Abstract
(1) THE present volume of metallurgical abstracts constitutes the first of a new series, to be published annually as an entirely separate work with its own index. This replaces the earlier system, of binding abstracts as a part of the Journal series, with an index covering both abstracts and the Institute's own publications. Some measure of discrimination has been introduced into this volume, in the form of symbols denoting papers describing the results of original research and those giving a critical review of a particular subject. The wide range of metallurgical literature has been covered in the usual comprehensive manner, but we again have to deplore the absence of a list of the journals abstracted.
