The historical development of metallurgy and of engineering materials establishes the importance of culture and economy on the guidance of progress and change. There is no indication of revolutionary scientific changes in our understanding and hence control of metals in the near future, taut significant alteration of industrial metallurgical procedures must occur as required by political considerations and availability of raw materials including fuels.
