Toprovideanassessmentofthestatusofcryogenicengineering50yearsago, a historical summary of cryogenic activity is presented in the first chapter. The purposeistoreviewtheeventsoccurringduringthe100-yearperiodpriorto1950 as well as to provide a better understanding of the events that took place after 1950.Withthathistoricalbackground,theadvancesinestablishingdatabasesfor cryogenicfluidsandpropertiesofmaterials,bothmetallicandnonmetallic,aredis- cussedandtheirpresentstatusevaluated.Theadvancesincryogenicfundamentals arethencovered,withreviewsofcryogenicprinciples,progressincryogenicinsu- lation,developmentoflow-lossstoragesystemsforcryogenicfluids,establishment ofmodernliquefactionprocesses,modificationsoccurringinheliumcryogenics, andimprovementsachievedincryogenicthermometry.
