| 520 | 8 | |a Annotation |b Depicting the lively careers of early scientists and their contributions in the 18th century, Morris skillfully brings the history of chemistry to life. He has been hailed by "Kirkus Reviews" as a "clear and lively writer with a penchant for down-to-earth examples." | |
| 520 | 8 | |a Annotation |b What we now call chemistry began in the fiery cauldrons of sorcerers seeking not to make a better world through science, but rather to make themselves richer through magic formulas and con games. Yet among these early frauds were a few far-seeing "alchemists" who used the trial and error of rigorous experimentation to transform mysticism into science. Others would come along-including the great Antoine Lavoisier and Dimitri Mendeleev-who carefully examined, measured, and recorded their findings. These visionaries brought order to the chemical sciences and finally gave birth to the first Periodic Table in the late 1800s. But between and after Lavoisier and Mendeleev were a host of other colorful, brilliant scientists who made their mark on the field of chemistry. Taking a cue from the great chemists themselves, Morris has brewed up a potent combination of the alluringly obscure and the historically momentous, spiked with just the right dose of quirky and ribald detail to deliver a magical brew of history, science, and personalities | |
