| |  | | | From The Publisher An easy-to-read book that presents cutting-edge ideas in a format that will enable a broad audience to attain scientific literacy. Here is a platform from which leading scientists have communicated their ideas to general readers. The periodic table is arguably the most important concept in chemistry, both in principle & practice. The periodic table is presented here as a kind of travel guide to an imaginary country, of which the elements are the various regions. This kingdom has a geography: the elements lie in particular juxtaposition to one another, & they are used to produce goods, much as a prairie produces wheat & a lake produces fish.
| | | | Annotation In this fascinating journey to the very heart of chemistry--the world of elements--physical chemistry professor Peter Atkins introduces readers to the most unifying concept in chemistry: the periodic table. From the 100 or so elements at the heart of the story, everything tangible is made, whether a planet or a microscopic organism. Illustrations.
