Ages 8 years & over. This series (a part of the Pegasus Encyclopaedia Library)contains the encyclopaedia based on Discoveries and Inventions, Space, Physics, Chemistry and Experiments. It is especially designed to fulfil the thirst for scientific knowledge in children.

The chemistry of food and cooking is just one example of the many roles chemistry plays in our everyday lives. This topic provides an exciting context for some familiar chemistry and a way to engage students with the subject. Kitchen Chemistry contains a wide variety of activities, from class practicals and demonstrations to reading comprehension and paper-based exercises. Each activity deals with an aspect of the chemistry of food and/or cooking. The material is suitable for a wide range of ages, from primary to post-16, and helps reinforce the idea that everything is made of chemicals and that there is no difference between 'man-made' and 'natural' chemicals.

An ideal primer for those who wish to improve their scientific literacy, this book is beautifully written and especially recommended for high school and undergraduate nonmajor science courses. Amply illustrated chapters on chemical bonding, biochemistry, cancer, and the atmosphere are interspersed with such chapters as "The Alchemist's Dream", "Newsworthy Molecules", and "WallStreet Chemistry". To facilitate this book's use in the classroom, a complete set of problems and sample exams are available from the publisher.

Moles: a survival guide for GSCE Science is a revised and updated edition of the very successful Moles: a survival guide for GCSE Chemistry. It is suitable for Science syllabuses at GCSE and beyond.
