"The Periodic Table defines the fundamental chemistry of everything in the universe, and this compact, readable guide outlines how it works. Dan Green explains how the Table's design reflects and illuminates the organisation of all matter, showing how it developed and what it has to tell us about the chemistry of distant stars and of our own bodies. This handbook also looks at the properties and uses of each element individually, as well as featuring sections on the nature of elements and the patterns and groups of the table."--Publisher.
