"...his introduction to quantum science and the structure of the atom at the start of the book is possibly some of the finest educational science writing for a non-specialist audience I think you'll find." - review of The Secret Life of the Periodic Table.

Also how many out there guide students to classify energy stores as either belonging to potential energy or kinetic energy. I like to mention that any potential energy is associated with a force and that Chemical and Elastic for example are subsets of electrostatic potential
