The Structure of Metals and Alloys

Abstract

OF all the recent developments in metallography, the most outstanding has been that which has resulted from the invasion of the physicist and the physical chemist, both of whom have, in the past few years, applied their own methods of investigation more and more to the metals and their alloys. As a result, although most of the ideas reached by the use of the older methods have withstood this attack, other conceptions have had to be modified, and in one or two cases, drastically.

The Structure of Metals and Alloys

By Dr. William Hume-Rothery. (Monograph and Report Series No. 1.) Pp. 120 + 4 plates. (London: Institute of Metals, 1936.) 3s. 6d. net.
