The Periodic Kingdom by Peter W Atkins
This is a journey of imagination in which the periodic table is treated as a country, a periodic kingdom, each region of which corresponds to an element. The book introduces the reader (who needs no prior knowledge of chemistry) to the general features of the table, the history of the elements and the underlying arrangement of the table in terms of the structure and properties of atoms.-
