frugal-quality-mom: This is the third product by the author we own. It was required for my son's high school chemistry class. They are all top notch materials for content, but are also arranged to be beautiful and engaging page after page. Would recommend for young and old, for academic or enjoyment use!

Pros: children loved it.
Cons: this is not the book if you need a ton of information on each element.

It is for children.

The Science series focused on, of course, science, with books devoted to every facet of physics, medicine, chemistry, biology.... It was a fantastic compendium of human knowledge in those pre-internet days, and I just loved it. I learned about how traveling at lightspeed squashes things by reading a story about spies chasing each other on the Lightspeed Express. I learned about how different drugs affect the mind and body. I learned about how important the wheel was, what water could do, and how the food we eat determines almost everything about our lives.
My favorite volume of all of them was titled Matter, and it was about all the stuff there is. At the center of it was a pictorial representation of all the elements known to science in 1968. Everything from Hydrogen to Uranium and...
