Gift Guide: CHEMISTRY!

Entered By: grantb on November 27, 2008 No Observations

The glorious MAKE blog has the scientific gift guide of my dreams: chemistry sets and DIY books for garage explosives experts and drug manufacturers. No, wait. Scientists! I mean scientists.

I began breathing heavily when I got to the entry on Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments, and my eyes became glassy when I saw the link to the book as a rapidshare pdf.

That’s some iconic science education there.

"Is it a fact—or have I dreamt it—that, by means of electricity, the world of matter has become a great nerve, vibrating thousands of miles in a breathless point of time?"
