I found this book to be very well written with a good attention to details that can aid in making the learning process smoother. The chapters are laid out well keeping an order to the important steps one must take to learn and build upon each skill. I was pleased with the chapter on metalurgy as it is very important to all types of welding procedures. I suggest this text to any welder in search of a basic starting point in this field. Well worth the money.
