Articles liés à Mendeleyev's Dream: The Quest For the Elements
Synopsis
In 1869 Russian scientist Dmitri Mendeleyev was puzzling over a way to bring order to the fledgling science of chemistry. Wearied by the effort, he fell asleep at his desk. What he dreamt would fundamentally change the way we see the world. Paul Strathern tells the dramatic and entertaining story of humankind's quest to discover the fundamentals of chemistry, culminating in Mendeleyev's dream of the Periodic Table. "MENDELEYEV'S DREAM is a wonderfully entertaining and stimulating journey from alchemy to chemistry in search of the elements of our universe. It is a book of great clarity and depth" Jim Crace

Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. Very good square copy. No inscriptions. Covered in this book is history of chemistry. On 17 February 1869 volatile Russian scientist Dmitri Mendeleyev was puzzling over a way to bring order to the fledgling science of chemistry. This maverick whose brilliance was only matched by his Rumpelstiltskin temper, wearied by the effort, he fell asleep at his desk. What he dreamt would fundamentally change the way we see the world. Paul Strathern tells the dramatic and entertaining story of humankind's quest to discover the fundamentals of chemistry, culminating in Mendeleyev's dream of the Periodic Table.
