Review # 1 was written on 2019-11-27 00:00:00 Joel Zayas As a non-scientist my interest waned in the middle. The prose was crackling early on in the book but seemed to drag later on.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-05-07 00:00:00 Ryan Sharp I was expecting this to be a difficult read, but it really wasn't. If you are intimidated by the size of the book (like I was), don't be. I would definitely recommend to anyone with an interest in chemistry or the history of science. To be honest, I found the parts on early chemistry/alchemy not as interesting as the parts I was more familiar with, but that's just me. In my opinion the book just gets better and better as you go. In fact, my favorite parts are the last two pages of the last chapter, and the epilogue.
