IT FOCUSES ON PRESENT DAY PROCESSES AND FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS RATHER THAN HISTORICAL PROCESSES. NICKEL, COBALT AND PLATINUM GROUP METALS ARE KEY ELEMENTS FOR MATERIALS PROCESSING. THEY OCCUR TOGETHER IN ONE BOOK BECAUSE THEY MAP TOGETHER ON THE PERIODIC TABLE; OCCUR TOGETHER IN MANY ORES; AND, ARE NATURAL PARTNERS FOR FURTHER MATERIALS PROCESSING AND MATERIALS MANUFACTURING.

STAINLESS STEELS AND CONIFE AIRPLANE ENGINE SUPER ALLOYS ARE EXAMPLES OF PRACTICAL USAGE. THE PRODUCT EMPHASISES A SEQUENTIAL, BUILDING-BLOCK APPROACH TO THE SUBJECT GAINED THROUGH THE AUTHOR'S PREVIOUS WRITINGS (PARTICULARLY EXTRACTIVE METALLURGY OF COPPER IN FOUR EDITIONS) AND EXTENSIVE EXPERIENCE.
