Description
Book Introduction
The longest-running bestseller in the chemistry field!
A story from the Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry and the “Poet of Chemistry”
A surprising story that will change our perception of chemistry.
Since its publication in 1996, Roald Hoffman's book has consistently been a bestseller in the chemistry field. It explains what chemistry is and how chemists approach solving chemical problems, using various examples.
This revised edition is a new and refined version of the previous translation and organizes the terminology.
The chemistry we think of is a field far removed from our daily lives, which involves using chemicals in a laboratory.
Additionally, our perception of chemicals is shifting towards negative consequences, such as environmental pollution.
However, chemistry has developed along with the history of mankind, and chemistry is so closely related to our lives that even our life phenomena can be said to be chemistry.
In this book, Professor Roald Hoffmann, a Nobel Prize winner and “poet of chemistry,” helps general readers understand chemistry and explains the world of chemistry in an easy-to-understand way through various examples.
Professor Hoffman argues that modern people must have a basic understanding of chemistry in order to properly understand their lives and participate properly in public opinion decisions as democratic citizens.
This book, written in an easy-to-understand and engaging way, covers the core issues of chemistry, molecular synthesis, and mechanisms, and will help us actively understand the world we live in.
