## Overview

### Features

Format: Paperback | 240 pages Language: English Author: Kean, Sam Published: 2019

### Description

Why did Gandhi hate iodine (I, 53)? How did radium (Ra, 88) nearly ruin Marie Curies reputation? And why did tellurium (Te, 52) lead to the most bizarre gold rush in history? The periodic table is a crowning scientific achievement, but its also a treasure trove of adventure, greed, betrayal, and obsession. The fascinating tales in The Disappearing Spoon follow elements on the table as they play out their parts in human history, finance, mythology, conflict, the arts, medicine, and the lives of the (frequently) mad scientists who discovered them.
