The Elements: A Very Short Introduction - Very Short Introductions
Ball, Philip (, Freelance science writer and Consultant Editor of ^INature^R)
Traces the history and cultural impact of the elements on humankind, and examines why people have long sought to identify the substances around them. Looking beyond the Periodic Table, the author takes us on a tour: from the Greek philosophers who propounded a system with four elements to the modern-day scientists who are able to create their own.
