## Description

Discover and understand the key ideas that underpin the core science of chemistry and learn about the great minds who uncovered them Written in plain English, The Chemistry Book is packed with short, pithy explanations of some of the most historic moments in science, from the birth of atomic theory to the discovery of polyethylene and the development of new vaccine technologies to combat COVID-19. Simple graphics, such as flowcharts and mind maps, support the text and make the explanation of key concepts easy to follow. Arranged in chronological order, the book covers key themes in the physical and natural sciences, such as geochemistry and the elements. Within each chapter, a series of articles traces the history of scientific thought and introduces the work of the scientists who have shaped the subject such as John Dalton, Marie Curie, Dmitri Mendeleev, Kathleen Lonsdale, and Stephanie Kwolek. Along the way, the book addresses some of the most fundamental questions in science, such as what is the universe made of, how is matter created, and what are the chemical bonds that make life possible? Whether you are new to chemistry, a student of the sciences, or just want to keep up with and understand the latest news and scientific debates, The Chemistry Book is for you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good read
*by P***N on 14 February 2026*

My grandson was thrilled with this book

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential Reference
*by A***R on 29 April 2026*

Not many ideas bigger than Chemistry and the periodic table!

### ⭐⭐⭐ This is a history of chemistry
*by S***H on 5 November 2025*

It's great if you wanted a history of chemistry. Laid out in chronological order of discoveries. But after telling you who discovered something there is very little info about the discovery. You end up goggling "what is a dative bond"or " what is a base" if you want to remember the basics of chemistry look elsewhere.
