" ' Elements of Metallurgy' possesses intrinsic merits of the highest degree. Such a 

 work is precisely wanted by the great majority of students and practical workers, and its 

 very compactness is in itself a first-rate recommendation. ... In our opinion, the 

 BEST WORK EVER WRITTEN ON THE SUBJECT with a view to its practical treatment." — 

 West?ninster Revie^v. 



" In this most useful and handsome volume, Mr. Phillips has condensed a large 

 amount of valuable practical knowledge. . . . We have not only the results of scientific 

 inquiry most cautiously set forth, but the experiences of a thoroughly practical man very 

 clearly given." — AtkeytcEum. 



" For twenty years the learned author, who might well have retired with honour on 

 account of his acknowledged success and high character as an authority in Metallurgy, 

 has been making notes, both as a Mining Engineer and a practical Metallurgist, and 

 devoting the most valuable portion of his time to the accumulation of materials for this 

 his Masterpiece." — Colliery Guardian. 



" The value of this work is almost inestimable. There can be no question that 

 the amount of time and labour bestowed upon it is enormous. . . . There is certainly 

 no Metallurgical Treatise in the language calculated to prove of such general utility to 

 the Student really seeking sound practical information upon the subject, and none which 

 gives greater evidence of the extensive metallurgical knowledge of its Author." — Mining 

 Journal.
