Elementary! by Paul Board
Do you know your arsole from your electron? Whether tritium or trivium, this periodically puzzling collection of over 400 different quiz questions, word games and brain teasers will challenge the chemist in you. Drawing on an illustrated cornucopia of chemicals with subjects ranging from the sub-atomic to the astronomic, stories of scientists, their quirks, discoveries, and inventions will delight and inspire you. Journey through tales of how chemistry and other sciences have touched all our lives, from the food we eat to the air that we breathe, from the novels that we read to the movies that we watch. Elementary! is compiled by the Royal Society of Chemistry’s puzzler Paul Board, with each chapter concentrating on a particular branch of science or facet of life. Explore scientists and superpowers, particles, places, plants, planets and poisons, and more. Get your thinking cap on!This is a very interesting and enthralling book of really rather complex puzzles! I liked the thematic approach to the sections and puzzles in the book with the over reaching ideas nicely joining the activities togetherThe challenge for many of the activities was very cleverly interwoven with simpler, more random or just plain fun information, facts or tests. As well as the really varied and enterprising variety of puzzling tasks.
