“The electron theory of metals involves a general background of atomic theory with which the metallurgical student is often unfamiliar.  The present book is written primarily for Advanced Students and Research Workers in Metallurgy, and is intended to provide a bridge by which they may be led to an understanding of the ideas underlying the new theories.  Much of the subject matter should also be of interest to Chemists and Physicists.”
