Reviews
'Most authors, it appears, have made an effort to avoid the factual boredom of technical language and managed to present their subjects in a very accessible way. What is more, the book as a whole is luxuriously illustrated, very often in full color, interspersed with boxes that provide additional information ... for those with chemistry at an advanced level it will make a fascinating read.' Rüdiger Faust, Angewandte Chemie, "This book is a challenging survey of the past 30 years of chemistry. Take a holiday from medicine and return to the foundations, and you will find it rewarding." bmj.com, "In virtually every chapter I came upon findings that were totally unknown 30 years ago and that have proven to be major advances in our understanding of chemistry. Indeed, every chapter (all 17 of them and a very thoughtful introduction by Professor Roald Hoffman), proved to be chock full of delightful tidbits that gave me a marvelous appreciation of just how creative and inventive chemists have been in the latter third of the 20th century....A delightful book that completely lives up to the marketing blurb on its dust jacket." Pesticide Biology, 'The New Chemistry will be a thoroughly rewarding read for anyone interested in the remarkable developments that are taking place in modern chemistry. Its pages show not only how contemporary chemists think, but also how they have become magicians with matter and have discovered how to make substances that perhaps exist nowhere else in the universe.' Peter Atkins, Professor of Chemistry, Oxford University, ' … an uncompromising yet pleasurable return to basics … We live in the age of the molecule, yet it is physics with its universe and biology with life that dominate the market for popular science. This book is a challenging survey of the past 30 years of chemistry. Take a holiday from medicine and return to the foundations, and you will find it rewarding.' Jeremy Playfer, 'Ask a bunch of otherwise well-informed chemists what exactly they think is going on in the field. The answer will probably be 'not much'. The New Chemistry is the book to set them right … Nina Hall has assembled a glittering array of authors to flesh out the current excitements. There is, in fact, so much happening that the contents are too diverse to list in full … And overall? The book is beautifully produced … It's good value for money. You get several Nobel winners for your 30 pounds. Recommended as good background material for chemists and the scientifically literate with chemical interests.' David Phillips, New Scientist, 'Terms like flabbergasted, humbled, and amazed are all apt descriptions of my feelings after having read this marvelous tome ... In virtually every chapter, I came upon findings that were totally unknown 30 years ago and that have proven to be major advanced in our understanding of chemistry ... proved to be chock full of delightful tidbits that gave me a marvelous appreciation of just how creative and inventive chemists were in the latter third of the twentieth century ... a delightful book that completely lives up to the marketing blurb on its dust jacket.' Ralph W. Howard, Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, ‘ … an uncompromising yet pleasurable return to basics … We live in the age of the molecule, yet it is physics with its universe and biology with life that dominate the market for popular science.

Its pages show not only how contemporary chemists think, but also how they have become magicians with matter and have discovered how to make substances that perhaps exist nowhere else in the universe.' Peter Atkins, Oxford University, '... this is a stimulating book with some outstanding chapters.' Sir John Meurig Thomas, Physics World, 'This book covers a vast range of chemical knowledge, each chapter written by experts and leading figures in their respective fields. This gives an insight into the complexity and beauty of the many varied aspects of the modern day approach to the subject and will excite and challenge readers to further their respective knowledge of the subject. This is not a coffee table edition of chemistry but a real insight into the modern approach and topics of chemistry today.' Jack Lewis, University of Cambridge, 'I doubt if any chemist could claim familiarity with all the topics covered in this book.' Applied Organometallic Chemistry, '… rigorously academic yet entirely readable book that presents a well-balanced collection of articles about the chemistry behind important discoveries … several chapters caught my attention immediately … a text that is excellent value for money. I recommend this fascinating book to teachers as background reading.' Clifford Jones, Education in Chemistry, "Without a doubt, it is a carefully written and superbly produced work. It is truly a joy to read this book. ... I enthusiatically recommend this book to students of science, regardless of their major, age, and area of expertise. This book should [be] on the shelf of every library, personal and institutional." Journal of Food Biochemistry, 'This book ... is to highlight important developments in chemistry of the last 30 years ... The book is splendidly produced ... and the layout is such that reading it s a real pleasure. This volume would make a wonderful gift to be presented at anniversaries.' Peter Warneck, Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry 'Its contributions span the full range of atomic and molecular behaviour: from the search for new elements to the production of energy, and from discussions of the nature of metals to discussions of chaos. ...The fact that the essays cover a wide range of topics suggests, accurately, that the traditional subfields of chemistry are amalgamating.' Nature ' ... belonged to a class of very special books that are authoritative despite being popularizations, that are encyclopedic but also report the state of the science, that are conceptually rigorous but are light on equations and avoid jargon. ... may belong on the sparsely populated shelf of books in this class.' American Scientist, '... this is a stimulating book with some outstanding chapters.'Sir John Meurig Thomas, Physics World, 'This book sings. Senior editor Nina Hall conducts an orchestra of 30 contributors ... in a technical and musical concert of seventeen pieces that are smoothly integrated, each colorfully and bountifully illustrated. If you really love chemistry in its entirety, from chanson to capriccio and chorale, this book will expand your horizons. It is a journey to our soul and substance.' Ray Dessy, Trends in Analytical Chemistry, ‘It covers a sufficiently broad scope that even those who have spent too many years thinking about atoms and molecules will find that its essays contain surprises. [The New Chemistry does] a good job of describing chemistry to chemists in ways that catch the imagination.’G. M. Whitesides, Nature, 'Terms like flabbergasted, humbled, and amazed are all apt descriptions of my feelings after having read this marvelous tome … In virtually every chapter, I came upon findings that were totally unknown 30 years ago and that have proven to be major advanced in our understanding of chemistry … proved to be chock full of delightful tidbits that gave me a marvelous appreciation of just how creative and inventive chemists were in the latter third of the twentieth century … a delightful book that completely lives up to the marketing blurb on its dust jacket.' Ralph W. Howard, Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology, 'This book covers, in a single volume, an unusually broad array of topics in chemistry. Judging from the several chapters I have had the privilege of seeing it is up-to-date and written in a manner which describes the underlying principles and which should be accessible to the broad chemical community. I am pleased to recommend it to those who would like a picture at a moderately detailed level of the thriving and exciting research in numerous areas of chemistry today.' Rudolph A. Marcus, winner of the 1992 Nobel Prize for Chemistry, ‘Terms like flabbergasted, humbled, and amazed are all apt descriptions of my feelings after having read this marvelous tome … In virtually every chapter, I came upon findings that were totally unknown 30 years ago and that have proven to be major advanced in our understanding of chemistry … proved to be chock full of delightful tidbits that gave me a marvelous appreciation of just how creative and inventive chemists were in the latter third of the twentieth century … a delightful book that completely lives up to the marketing blurb on its dust jacket.’Ralph W.
