It has not been felt necessary tci make any alteration in the scope or general arrangement of the book, bnt since the first edition was published there have been changes and developments in many directions, especially in connection with coke ovens, gas producers, and pyrometry. Considerable additions have theiefore been made in the chapters dealing with these subjects. The modern forms of plant and apparatus are now described. Some descriptions of older types of plant have been deleted, and the whole book has been carefully revised. In spite of the progress which is being made in the adoption of the metric system in this country, it is unfortunately still necessary to use the British system of weights and measures. These have therefore been retained. The author hopes that the changes made will add to the usefulness of the book. The best thanks of the author are due to his colleague. Professor Gray, and to his chief assistant, M i J. S. G. Primrose, A.G.T.C, for help given with the revision. Glasgow,
