The word chemical is loaded with negative meaning for many people in industrial societies, who worry about the impact of synthetic chemicals on their bodies and their environment. Yet nature itself is the greatest chemist. From the molecules that make up our bodies to the complex reactions required to produce plastics and preserve food, chemistry is all around us. This volume deals with every aspect of chemistry in the science curriculum, from the structure of atoms and molecules to the dynamics of chemical reactions and their importance for life and atmospheric processes.
From sound energy and the light spectrum to genetic coding and patterns of inheritance, topics in this series expand on the history of science in the 21st century and examine what they may hold for the future. Each title in this bold series offers a close look at key scientific topics and how they have affected science today.
