Recommended reading for metallurgical novice

(OP)
I'm a chemical engineer in the oil & gas industry with limited knowledge of petroleum processing metallurgy.  I'm specifically interested in the grades of carbon and stainless steels.

I hear different grades discussed often but I'm unfamiliar with their properties or how one grade of steel may be better suited for a service than another.

I'm looking for any information (websites, books, magazines, etc.) that will be helpful given my limited knowledge of metallurgy.

Engineering Metallurgy by  E C Rollason.

"Metallurgy for the Non-Metallurgist" looks like exactly what I was searching for.  Thanks.

I can't seem to find any mention of "Engineering Metallurgy" on the web.  Where can I get a hold of it?

RE: Recommended reading for metallurgical novice

Sorry for the mislead. I had to refresh 30 years back

The correct title is

" Rollason A.C - Metallurgy for engineers - ELBS Publication "

RE: Recommended reading for metallurgical novice

"Metallurgy for the Non-Metallurgist" was an actual class that I participated in a number of years ago.  It was taught in Cleveland, Ohio by ASM International.
