About This Book

Introducing a new series of information-led pocket guides aimed at demystifying a wide and eclectic range of subjects. Called The knowledge, each book within the series is written by an expert in the field providing a lively, and informative, introduction to their respective topic.

The formulation of the periodic table, in 1869, revolutionised chemistry in the same way that Darwin and Newton's theories had advanced the fields of biology and physics.

The discovery of a relationship between the known elements revealed a link between the scientific disciplines and offered scientists an inkling into the blueprint of the universe. This fascinating book traces the story of the table of elements.
