About This Item
Introducing "Elements: A Visual Exploration of Every Known Atom in the Universe, Book 1 of 3 Hardcover" - a captivating guide that takes you on a journey through the fascinating world of elements. In this visually stunning book, renowned element collector and Popular Science columnist, Theodore Gray, pays homage to the periodic table by bringing every known atom to life. Whether you are a student or a curious explorer, this book is sure to captivate your imagination. The book starts with an introduction to the arrangement of the periodic table, providing a solid foundation for further exploration. Each of the first 100 elements is given its own two-page spread, showcasing a large color image of the element in its true form whenever possible. The right-hand side of each spread offers a glimpse into the different ways the element appears in the world, accompanied by explanations of some of the compounds in which it can be found.
For instance, the entry on Selenium includes images of selenium sulfide medicated shampoo, Brazil nuts (known for their high selenium content), and a red vase colored with a selenium glaze. These stunning visuals are mostly sourced from Gray's personal collection. In addition to the visuals, the book provides detailed information about each element. A column running down the right-hand page offers key details such as the element's location in the periodic table, atomic weight, density, atomic radius, and crystal structure.
You'll also find charts portraying its electron order filling, atomic emission spectrum, and states of matter at various temperatures. Elements 101 through 118, which may be unstable or yet to be discovered, are presented in two groups of nine due to their unique characteristics. The volume concludes with a brief bibliography and an index, along with a foldout poster of the periodic table for easy reference. Praised by The New York Times and Wired, "Elements: A Visual Exploration of Every Known Atom in the Universe" is not just a science book; it's a work of art. Gray's dry wit and historical anecdotes bring even the most basic elements to life, making it an engaging and educational read. Theodore Gray, an author with an impeccable background in science and software creation, has also developed best-selling iPad apps such as Elements and Molecules.
He is joined by photographer Nick Mann, known for his ability to capture the beauty of inanimate objects on black backgrounds. Whether you're fascinated by the building blocks of the universe, seeking a visual guide to elements, or simply want to discover the wonders that exist within our world, this hardcover book is a must-have addition to your collection. Embark on a visual exploration of atoms, uncover the secrets of the universe, and discover the intriguing world of elements with "Elements: A Visual Exploration of Every Known Atom in the Universe, Book 1 of 3 Hardcover.".
