A Chemical History Tour: Picturing Chemistry from Alchemy to Modern Molecular Science

"Overall, as intended...a fascinating book to browse through and an excellent starting point for anyone interested in the strange and wonderful history of our collective discipline." (Today's Chemist, Vol. 10, No. 2, February 2001)
"This is a delightful book that has no equal. It is a joy to read and well worth its retail price.... Sentences are short; words are familiar; humor and well-turned phrases abound." (Chemical Heritage, Spring 2001)
"Greenberg offers chemistry teachers, practicing professionals...and lay readers a light-hearted tour of his discipline's history." (SciTech Book News, Vol. 24, No. 4, December 2000)
"This is not an encyclopedic work on the entire history of the science, but a picture book to be read an enjoyed by chemists and nonchemists alike. Nevertheless, it will serve as a valuable secondary source for historians of science..." (American Scientist, Vol. 89, May/June 2001)
"...will captivate younger chemists...there has been nothing like it available since [...] 'A pictorial history of chemistry', 1939..." (Chemistry & Industry, 20th November 2000)
"...a work of art as well as of science.... I highly recommend it to practicing chemists, chemical educators, bibliophiles and book collectors, and anyone interested in chemistry, art and culture, and even to historians.... The author obviously had a lot of fun and enjoyed himself in writing it...in reading it you'll experience the same feelings." (Endeavor, Vol. 26, No. 2, June 2002)
