Everyman's Chemistry: The Chemist's Point of View and His Recent Work Told for the Layman (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from Everyman's Chemistry: The Chemist's Point of View and His Recent Work Told for the Layman
Chemistry would be the dullest study on earth if it only had to do with the proportionate amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur, etc., that a body contains. This is merely the genealogy of things, and bears the same relation to them that the names Of a man's several grandparents do to him. The interest lies in what these things will do, just as the interesting quality of a man lies in the problem of what he will do under more or less known conditions.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book invites readers to embark on a fascinating journey into the world of chemistry, a subject often shrouded in mystery and perceived as inaccessible to the average person. The author dispels this notion by presenting chemistry not as a dry, abstract science, but as a dynamic, lively force that governs all aspects of our lives. Drawing on a blend of historical anecdotes, thought experiments, and everyday examples, the author guides readers through the fundamental concepts of chemistry, from the nature of matter and the behavior of atoms and molecules to the intricacies of solutions, ions, and the ionic theory. The book explores how chemistry impacts our daily experiences, from the rusting of steel to the baking of bread, and delves into the practical applications of chemical knowledge in various industries. By presenting chemistry as a subject with a captivating "romantic side," the author encourages readers to explore its mysteries and appreciate its profound impact on our understanding of the world around us. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330868997_0
