Book Overview

Here is the first book to provide a complete natural history of the elements. This interdisciplinary guide will give the reader a broad, non-technical view of the origin of the elements, the factors controlling their abundances, and their distributions in the Earth, solar system, and
universe. This unique volume is based on a series of lectures given for freshman chemistry students and will be of equal value to both undergraduates and professors...

Great recreational reading for chemists

This work by P.A. Cox offers a useful overview of how matter came to be distributed as we see it today. Despite its age, little has changed in the basics that are presented here. The book is quite specialized; it is targeted towards chemists, cut covers topics primarily out of cosmology and geology, so it is certainly not for everyone. I would strongly recommend it to anyone with an interest in the subject and at least a batchelor's degree in chemistry. Personally, I use this book as the basis for a lecture in a senior-level university Inorganic Chemistry course.
