If you only had one book on science ...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
... it would be "Chemistry in the Marketplace". Facts and informed opinion on just about every aspect of science (and not just "chemistry") as it relates to everyday living - neither gung-ho for "progress" nor starry-eyed about the past. The good professor has his feet firmly planted in reality, loves his subject and clearly enjoys life. This book ought to be a classic - a wealth of useful information presented in a way that will satisfy both the scientifically literate and the merely curious. It's not cheap, but real value for money.
Absolutely bloody fantastic

5th edition available in the US since Jan 20th. As I am the author, I may be biased. It's Australian; but if you liked Crocodile Dundee, Muriel's Wedding, Piano, you'll love this book. Happy to discuss it with readers.
