This book explains the metallurgy of steel and its heat treatment for non-metallurgists. It starts from simple concepts—beginning at the level of high-school chemistry classes—and building to more complex concepts involved in heat treatment of most all types of steel as well as cast iron. Most chapters in the book contain a summary at the end. These summaries provide a short review of the contents of each chapter. This book is the practical primer on steel metallurgy for those who heat, forge, or machine steel.
