Metals and Alloys Dictionary
ISBN: 9780820600314 / Angielski / Miękka / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

And so, if the need but be granted, the author may be permitted to hope that this volume, in greater or lesser measure, fills the void. Not that perfection is expected-the ideal may not even be prayed for in this all-too-imperfect world. Indeed, I...
