Have you ever wondered why we talk about the Bronze Age, and not, say, the Age of Agriculture or the Age of the Wheel? The answer is simple: metals have always been more than just materials. They are catalysts for... change, engines of progress, defining the strength and possibilities of entire civilizations. Open this book — and you will enter a wonderful world. You will learn that it was metals that allowed people to build cities, create weapons and tools, and discover new lands. Remember the periodic table: each metal is a separate chapter in the development of civilization, from soft tin and lead to strong iron and titanium, without which neither space ships nor modern cities are possible.
