The book aims to provide insights into the glass manufacturing process, focusing on its physical and chemical properties, constituents, and manufacturing techniques rather than serving as a comprehensive technical manual. It seeks to explain the rationale behind each step of the glass-making process and highlights current practices in the industry. The opening of the book presents the author's objectives and challenges in writing about glass manufacture. Rosenhain emphasizes that the work is intended for glass users rather than manufacturers, resulting in a less technical exposition. He discusses the complexities and gaps in the scientific understanding of glass, including its chemical composition and the physical properties that impact its manufacturing. This section underscores the need for further research in the field, as many aspects of glass production remain poorly defined due to the industry's protective secrecy and empirical nature. Overall, the introduction sets the stage for a deeper exploration of glass's characteristics and the intricacies involved in its fabrication. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
