The Periodic Table
This is one of the 18 Background Books published for Stage II of the Nuffield Chemistry Sample Scheme. The books were highly illustrated and designed to be attractive. This book describes aspects of the history of chemistry by exploring the developments that led to the Periodic Table.
There are 4 parts to this book:
*Part 1: Bringing order to the elements
This part outlines the contributions made by Lavoisier, Dobereiner and Newlands.
*Part 2: Further progress
This part describes the work of Meyer and Mendeleev.
*Part 3: The final solution
