terms of general application. Thus, a comprehensive review, which helps in widening the potential of the process, is important and it is a testimony to the ongoing success of the technique that a complete text can be devoted to the topic. The material is presented in a most readable and logical manner beginning with an introduction to the laser welding process and the major laser welding systems. This is essential reading for those who have not heard of the process previously. The information is given in a clear and uncomplicated way with much of the detailed mathematics and physics kept to a necessary minimum for understanding. Complementing the background theory is an excellent chapter on heat transfer and modelling which gives an insight to the crucial &keyholing' process, the basis of laser welding. There is a substantial chapter devoted to the laser welding of metals, providing an up-to-date account of the important weld types, material weldability and e!ects on mechanical properties. A chapter on metallurgical issues follows which highlights the e!ect of the laser weld cycle on the metals being joined. There has been much less work on the laser welding of non-metals and the s
