"Turkdogan's book is a welcome, excellent addition to the existing literature on the science of steelmaking. Written by a recognised expert in the field who has participated for many years in the research effort at US Steel, it covers concisely, clearly, and thoroughly a variety of pertinent topics." 

TZ Kattamis, University of Connecticut Gives engineers, research scientists and graduate students a clear understanding of the operation and control of the pyrometallurgical process. It will also be useful for technical training courses given to steel plant engineers and plant operators.
