Review by Horn Book Review

These clear, factual books present the discovery and increasingly sophisticated use of these two elements. A center section in each book indicates the position of the substance in the periodic table and its relationship to other elements. Some idea of the electronic cause of chemical bonding is provided. Illustrated with black-and-white and color photographs and reproductions. Bib., glos., ind. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
