Basher Science: The Complete Periodic Table by Adrian Dingle

You might've heard about the elements, but have you ever met them?

Perfect for home and school, Basher Science: The Periodic Table gives a face, voice and personality to the chemical elements, making learning chemistry easier and a whole lot more fun.

Do you confuse boron with barium or chlorine with fluorine? Fear not! Basher Science has come to the rescue by combining science and art to create a unique periodic table. From unassuming oxygen to devious manganese, the incredible elements show you the periodic table as you've never seen it before.

This original book makes difficult concepts tangible, understandable and even lovable. The vibrant illustrations from Simon Basher, combined with engaging text written by Dan Green and Adrian Dingle, transform complex topics into fascinating and accessible facts.

There's even more to discover with the Basher Science series, including: Chemistry, Rocks and Minerals, Physics and Biology.
