Metal craft started turning into metal science in the 19th Century and got matured in 20th century. The present book, to the best of author's memory, is the first attempt to present the history of metal science in one volume, covering both extractive and physical metallurgy. The book is aimed as a supplementary text book for students in metallurgy and materials science and also selectively for general readers. After a brief introduction (Chapter 1), the second and third chapters are devoted toMaterials science foundations ;Volume 75.MetalsHistoryMetallurgyHistoryMetalsHistory.MetallurgyHistory.669.0901Upadhyaya G.
