Excellent Educational Text

"The Essential Welder" is an excellent publication for the beginning to advanced welding student who wants to know what is happening at the molecular level during the GTAW and GMAW process. Can be used and understood by the average layman who has basic a understanding of the metal's physical properties up through college level engineering courses.
