The Periodic Table: Its Story and Its Significance, by Eric Scerri,
Oxford University Press, 2007.

------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The Periodic Table is one of the most iconic symbols in our culture.
Every person interested in the physical world in which we live will
want to read this book. It is also a masterful history of the people
involved in the establishment of the periodic law of chemistry. The
gradual growth in awareness of the regularities of the elements is
the main theme of this work. It is already a classic in its first
year in print! Gary D. Patterson (Carnegie Mellon University,
Pittsburgh, PA) -
