Chemistry's most significant chart, the Periodic Table, and its 118
elements, is laid bare in this lively, accessible and compelling
expose. The periodic table, created in the early 1860s by Russian
chemist Dmitri Mendeleev, marked one of the most extraordinary
advances in modern chemistry. This basic visual aid helped
scientists to gain a deeper understanding of what chemical elements
really were and the role they played in everyday life. Here, in the
authoritative Elementary, James Russell uses his engaging narrative
to explain the elements we now know about. From learning about the
creation of the first three elements, hydrogen, lithium and helium,
in the big bang, through to oxygen and carbon, which sustain life
on earth - along with the many weird and wonderful uses of elements
as varied as fluorine, arsenic, krypton and einsteinium - even the
most unscientifically minded will be enthralled by this fascinating
subject. This is the story of the building blocks of the universe,
and the people who identified, isolated and even created them.
