Long Hard Road provides an inside look at the birth of the lithium-ion battery, from its origins in academic labs around the world to its transition to its new role as the future of automotive power. It chronicles the piece-by-piece development of the battery, from its early years when it was met by indifference from industry to its later emergence in Japan where it served in camcorders, laptops, and cell phones. The book is the first to provide a glimpse inside the Japanese corporate culture that turned the lithium-ion chemistry into a commercial product.

Testosterone propels our drive for exploration and risk, for competition and creation, and even our survival. The effects of testosterone permeate the traditions, philosophy, and literature of every known culture - without it, the world would be a drastically different place. It also has a role in humanity's darker side, contributing to violence, hubris, poverty, crime, and selfishness. Recent revelations of the science of testosterone show that high levels will deplete compassion and generosity, and even reduce the affection we show our children.

Why is it impossible to spin your right foot clockwise while you draw a six with your right hand? Can you extract DNA from a strawberry daiquiri? Would you make love like a praying mantis? Should you book a holiday on Earth 2.0? The Element in the Room will take you on a rib-tickling, experiment-fuelled adventure to explain everyday science that is staring you in the face. If you are sci-curious, pi-curious or just the-end-is-nigh-curious then this is the book for you.

Written by award-winning science writer John Emsley, this informative and highly enjoyable book explains the what, the why and the wherefore of the elements. Arranged alphabetically, from Actinium to Zirconium, it is a complete guide to all the elements that are currently known, with more extensive coverage of those we encounter in our everyday life. The entry on each element reveals where it came from, what role it may have in the human body, the foods that contain it, how it was discovered, its role in human health, the uses and misuses to which it is put, and its environmental role.

In this fresh and engaging guide to chemistry, Dr. Kate Biberdorf, aka "Kate the Chemist," reveals the fascinating science we experience every day Have you ever wondered what makes dough rise? Or how your morning coffee gives you that energy boost? Or why your shampoo is making your hair look...

In this installment of the Ask the Experts series, Chemistry, our professors, scientists, and researchers tackle reader questions about the substances that compose all matter, their properties, and how they interact and change. Queries range from elementary questions, such as why some elements change color over a flame, to how chemistry works in everyday life, to how certain substances affect the body and more.

Each day, headlines warn that baby bottles are leaching dangerous chemicals, nonstick pans are causing infertility, and plastic containers are making us fat. What if green chemistry could change all that? What if rather than toxics, our economy ran on harmless, environmentally-friendly materials? Elizabeth Grossman, an acclaimed journalist who brought national attention to the contaminants hidden in computers and other high tech electronics, now tackles the hazards of ordinary consumer products.

النظير هو شكلٌ مختلفٌ من عنصرٍ كيميائيٍّ يحتوي على عددٍ مختلفٍ من النيوترونات في نواته. وقد وُصفَت النظائر، من جانب مكتشفها فريدريك سُدي، بأنَّهـا «متطابقـة من الخـارج» و«مختلفـة من الداخل»، ومن الممكن أن تكون مستقرَّة أو مشعَّة. في هذه المقدِّمة الموجزة، يوضِّح روب إلام الدور المهم الذي لعبته دراسة النظائر فـي العلم الحديث. ويفسِّر كيف أدَّت عمليَّـات طبيعيَّـة إلى التمييز بين النظائر، ويصف التطبيقات العديدة للكيمياء الجيولوجيَّـة للنظائـر، بدايـةً مـن استكشـاف باطـن الأرض العميـق، وصولاً إلى النُّظُم الغذائيَّـة للحضارات القديمة، ومن المفاعلات النوويَّـة إلى تقنيَّـات التصوير الطبيَّـة.

Jean-Marie Tarascon est un spécialiste de la chimie/électrochimie du solide. Il est professeur à l'université de Picardie Jules Verne à Amiens où il dirige le Laboratoire de Réseau sur le Stockage Électrochimique de l'Énergie (FR CNRS 3459). Cependant l'essentiel de sa carrière s'est déroulé aux États-Unis, d'abord à Cornell University (1980), puis à Bell Laboratory et à Bellcore jusqu'en 1994. Ses travaux ont d'abord porté sur quelques propriétés électroniques de phases de Chevrel ainsi que sur leur aptitude à insérer ou deinsérer des ions alcalins.À la fin des années...

"Molecole in Scatola - Dialoghi su Chimica e Società" è il podcast del Dipartimento di Chimica dell'Università di Torino.In ogni puntata, le ricercatrici e i ricercatori del Dipartimento ci condurranno alla scoperta di materiali, molecole o tecnologie del passato o su cui si sta ancora lavorando, promuovendo una riflessione sulle loro implicazioni sociali.Molecole in Scatola è un podcast della Commissione Public Engagement del Dipartimento di Chimica - UNITO, da un'idea di Francesca Turco. Realizzazione audio/video Paolo Mazzà, Musiche originali di Filippo Turci.

From fire to fallout, potions to polymers — this is the story of how we figured out what everything is made of. Chemistry 101 isn’t your high school textbook. It’s a walkthrough of how humans turned mystery into mastery. You’ll meet alchemists chasing gold, scientists splitting atoms, and modern chemists designing synthetic realities out of carbon and code. Packed with stories, structure, and the messy human drive to mix, burn, and bottle the universe, this book walks you through the wild history of reactions — from ancient smelting pits to lab-grown meat and CRISPR edits.

El arsénico está presente en casi doscientos cincuenta minerales, nos rodea en el aire, nos envuelve en el agua y forma parte de la tierra que pisamos; pero ¿es verdaderamente el arsénico el elemento más letal de la Tabla Periódica? Desde la Antigüedad —y porque hasta hace bien poco era imposible de detectar en un enfermo o en un cadáver—, el arsénico se ha ganado el ostentoso título de «rey de los venenos».

Hva er verden laget av? Hva er DU laget av? Og hvordan lages det alt er laget av? Alt vi omgir oss med består av GRUNNSTOFFENE, og i denne podcasten skal vi ta et dypdykk ned i hvert enkelt av alle våre 118 grunnstoff og forstå dets betydning for våre liv på jorden og i universet. Vi er Gunstein Skomedal fra UiA som jakter grunnstoff i naturen, Ole Martin Løvvik fra Sintef og UiO som utforsker de grunnleggende egenskapene og Birte Runde fra Eyde klyngen som ikke kan noe om grunnstoffene – men snart vil bli 118 grunnstoff rikere.
