内容简介

A week may be a long time in politics, but a year seems like a short time in the life of this President of the Institute of Refractory Engineers. The last 12 months have flown by. During this time there have been some significant changes. Nationally, our industry has been in and out of Recession; and Australia and the UK have new Governments; locally Corus Teesside has been mothballed (but may soon restart); and in general support for future industrial investment remains unclear (e.g. the UK Nuclear industry and Forgemasters); .... and last, but not least, your Institute now has an E-Directory! Nothing stands still for long.
