Written by the author of the award-winning 'Chemische Kabinettstücke’ this book demonstrates over 80 enjoyable, impressive and sometimes almost unbelievable chemical experiments for the classroom, lecture hall or home. All the experiments are explained in full, and have been tested several times such that their successful reproduction is guaranteed.
Grouped into several cycles — water, the color blue, the color red, soles, and self-organization — the topics are perfect for experimental lectures or school projects. Detailed illustrations and the lively writing style make this book equally attractive to readers interested in chemistry, even if they are unable to perform the experiments.

O autorze
Professor Herbert W. Roesky (born in 1935) is Professor for Inorganic Chemistry at the University of Göttingen. As departmental director at the University of Frankfurt/Main and Göttingen for many years, he has influenced the development of Inorganic Chemistry in Germany as nobody else. Since ever his special concern was focused on promoting students and youngster’s interest in chemistry, which is supported by his several book publications and an annual christmas lecture given at the University of Göttingen.
Besides numerous honory doctorates he was awarded with the Leibniz Prize and the Grand Prix de la Maison de Chimie. For his book 'Chemische Kabinettstücke’, which was translated in many languages, he received the Literaturpreis of the 'Fond der chemischen Industrie’.
