This is a good book, but with a somewhat misleading title. It should more accurately have been titled Physical Metallurgy of Steels because it is primarily about steels and is much more than just a handbook. A handbook conjures up a vision of a book that is primarily a source for data. There is a lot of data in this book, but it contains much, much, more. It is an excellent text, covering all aspects of the metallurgy of steel in great detail. There are separate chapters on Pearlite, Martensite, Bainite and Austenite, as well as ones on the hardenability and heat treatment of steels; plus chapters on the metallurgy of diffusion, plastic deformation, recovery-recrystallization, grain growth and nucleation in solids in general. These chapters cover all metals, not just iron based ones. This is an excellent metallurgy reference, particularly for anyone interested in steels.
