This book is dedicated to the memory of Robert C. McMaster (1913–1985)
and Friedrich Foerster (1908–1999), who were pioneers in the field of
nondestructive testing and shared a common interest in electromagnetic
testing. As a young engineer working for DuPont, under contract to the U.S.
Atomic Energy Commission, the ASNT’s Nondestructive Testing Handbook
and CRC’s Handbook of Chemistry and Physics quickly became
indispensable reference sources.
