This coloring book brings to life the magic and impact of organic chemistry for children and adults alike. With more than 25 pages to color, kids will have fun and even learn some science too! The molecules featured in this book include sucrose, aspirin, caffeine, cellulose, proteins, and many more. This educational coloring book was created by two children, with the help of their father, a UCLA Chemistry Professor. "This coloring book brings the unbridled curiosity of a young mind together with the wonders of our molecular world in ways that will surely inspire discovery, fun, and perhaps a lifelong appreciation of the ubiquity and impact of chemistry" -Professor Paul Wender (Stanford University)

From New York Times bestselling author Sam Kean comes incredible stories of science, history, finance, mythology, the arts, medicine, and more, as told by the Periodic Table. Why did Gandhi hate iodine (I, 53)? How did radium (Ra, 88) nearly ruin Marie Curie's reputation? And why is gallium (Ga, 31) the go-to element for laboratory pranksters? The Periodic Table is a crowning scientific achievement, but it's also a treasure trove of adventure, betrayal, and obsession. These fascinating tales follow every element on the table as they play out their parts in human history, and in the lives of the (frequently) mad scientists who discovered them. The Disappearing Spoon masterfully fuses science with the classic lore of invention, investigation, and discovery -- from the Big Bang through the end of time. Though solid at room temperature, gallium is a moldable metal that melts at 84 degrees Fahrenheit. A classic science prank is to mold gallium spoons, serve them with tea, and watch guests recoil as their utensils disappear.

A coloring book to familiarize the user with the Primary elements in the Periodic Table. The Periodic Table Coloring Book (PTCB) was received worldwide with acclaim. It is based on solid, proven concepts. By creating a foundation that is applicable to all science ("Oh yes, Hydrogen, I remember coloring it, part of water, it is also used as a fuel; I wonder how I could apply this to the vehicle engine I am studying...") and creating enjoyable memories associated with the elements science becomes accepted. These students will be interested in chemistry, engineering and other technical areas and will understand why those are important because they have colored those elements and what those elements do in a non-threatening environment earlier in life.

This book provides an up-to-date insight into the chemistry behind the colour of the dyes and pigments that make our world so colourful. The impressive breadth of coverage starts with a dip into the history of colour science. Colour Chemistry then goes on to look at the structure and synthesis of the various dyes and pigments, along with their applications in the traditional areas of textiles, coatings and plastics, and also the ever-expanding range of "high-tech" applications. Also discussed are some of the environmental issues associated with the manufacture and use of colour. The broad and balanced coverage presented in this book makes it ideal for students and graduates. In addition, many specialists in industry or academia will also benefit from the overview of the subject that is provided.

Napoleon's Buttons is the fascinating account of seventeen groups of molecules that have greatly influenced the course of history. These molecules provided the impetus for early exploration, and made possible the voyages of discovery that ensued. The molecules resulted in grand feats of engineering and spurred advances in medicine and law; they determined what we now eat, drink, and wear. A change as small as the position of an atom can lead to enormous alterations in the properties of a substance-which, in turn, can result in great historical shifts. With lively prose and an eye for colorful and unusual details, Le Couteur and Burreson offer a novel way to understand the shaping of civilization and the workings of our contemporary world.

BANNED: The Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments was a children's chemistry book written in the 1960s by Robert Brent and illustrated by Harry Lazarus, showing how to set up your own home laboratory and conduct over 200 experiments. The book is controversial, as many of the experiments contained in the book are now considered too dangerous for the general public. There are apparently only 126 copies of this book in libraries worldwide. Despite this, its known as one of the best DIY chemistry books every published. The book was a source of inspiration to David Hahn, nicknamed "the Radioactive Boy Scout" by the media, who tried to collect a sample of every chemical element and also built a model nuclear reactor (nuclear reactions however are not covered in this book), which led to the involvement of the authorities. On the other hand, it has also been the inspiration for many children who went on to get advanced degrees and productive chemical careers in industry or academia.

These mandalas, Martha Bartfeld writes, are keys that have been planted, and each key will open doors to hidden memories when you are ready to experience them. As you look upon these designs, you will find a message about an issue you are dealing with. Each symbol will suggest a telepathic image -- a reminder of the lesson you have come to earth to learn, of your own inner magic. In addition to inspiring guided art meditations, these original geometric patterns are ideal for a wide range of design applications, from stained glass to tattoos. Kids enjoy coloring them as much as adults do.
