Or how your morning coffee gives you that energy boost? Or why your shampoo is making your hair look greasy? The answer is chemistry. From the moment we wake up until the time we go to sleep (and even <em>while </em>we sleep), chemistry is at work--and it doesn't take a PhD in science to understand it. <br /><br />Dr. Biberdorf has appeared on TV programs from the<em> Today </em>show<em> </em>to <em>The Late Show with Stephen Colbert</em>, <em> </em>lighting the world on fire and changing the face of chemistry as we know it. In <em><strong>It's Elemental</strong></em>, she demystifies the fundamental principles of the science that may have eluded you in high school and shows how chemistry comes alive in everything we do. With wry wit and infectious enthusiasm, this entertaining guide will ignite your passion for science and change the way you experience the world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Whether you're baking a pie, washing your hands, or watching a sunset, Dr. Biberdorf shows that science is everywhere and it's fun!
