The Golden Book of ChemistryExperiments BOOK ON CD
The Golden Book of ChemistryExperiments was a children\'s chemistry book written in the 1960s by RobertBrent. Many of the experiments contained in the book are now considered\"dangerous for unsupervised children\", and would not appear in amodern children\'s chemistry book. The book was a source of inspiration to David Hahn, nicknamed \"theRadioactive Boy Scout\" by the media, who tried to collect a sample ofevery chemical element and also built a model nuclear reactor.Growing up in suburban Detroit,David Hahn was fascinated by science, and his basement experiments—buildinghomemade fireworks, brewing moonshine, and concocting his own self-tanninglotion—were more ambitious than those of other boys. While working on hisAtomic Energy badge for the Boy Scouts, David’s obsessive attention turned tonuclear energy. Throwing caution to the wind, he plunged into a new project:building a nuclear breeder reactor in his backyard garden shed.
or, which led to the involvement of the authorities.
Provided as a PDF on CDThe Golden Book of Chemistry Experiments was a children’s chemistry bookwritten in the 1960s by Robert Brent and illustrated by Harry Lazarus, showinghow to set up your own home laboratory and conduct over 200 experiments.
The book is controversial, as manyof the experiments contained in the book are now considered too dangerous forthe general public.
The USgovernment had the book removed from libraries and banned for sale on thegrounds that the projects were too dangerous for its intended audience. I wouldhave to agree that you probably don\'t want your kids making and ignitinghydrogen in the garage, but for the aspiring chemist who can adhere to thesafety precautions, this remains one of the best do-it-yourself chemistry booksaround.
