A definitive and standard reference work providing summaries of data relating to metallurgy and metal physics.  This fourth edition has been revised and expanded from earlier issues.  Data is presented in a logical and structured fashion, accompanied by short monographs on specific topics.  This edition features new sections on the application of lasers in metallurgy and properties of elementary particles which did not appear in earlier editions.
