Superheavy: Making and Breaking the Periodic Table by Kit Chapman

4.0

well now i’m addicted to isotopes once again. the writing at times was wonky and i could See what the transitions were trying to do, but often they fell flat with doing their job. i also found many of the names to be hard to follow- major figures like seaborg, oganessian, ghiorso were easy to follow, but many of the others were more difficult to track, which made the epilogue less satisfying when you don’t remember 90% of the people mentioned. outside of that though, i found this to be a nice little chemistry treat! would definitely reread it at some point.
