Everything that surrounds - and we ourselves - are made of molecules,
combinations of atoms bonded together in very particular ways. They are
constructed from a limited set of elements that can combine in an almost
limitless variety of arrangements. And when they do, they take on
properties and significance greater than the sum of their parts. This
book is all about how individual atoms work together to take on new and
bigger roles. It offers a look at just 52 molecules that help make us
and the world around us. It explores their impact on our lives and how
they keep us engaged with life and living.
