In this fresh and engaging guide to chemistry, Dr. Kate Biberdorf, a.k.a. "Kate the Chemist", reveals the fascinating science we experience every day.

Have you ever wondered what makes dough rise? Or how your morning coffee gives you that energy boost? Or why your shampoo is making your hair look greasy? The answer is chemistry. From the moment we wake up until the time we go to sleep (and even while we sleep), chemistry is at work - and it doesn't take a PhD in science to understand it.

Dr. Biberdorf has appeared on TV programs from the Today show to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, lighting the world on fire and changing the face of chemistry as we know it. In It's Elemental, she demystifies the fundamental principles of the science that may have eluded you in high school and shows how chemistry comes alive in everything we do. With wry wit and infectious enthusiasm, this entertaining guide will ignite your passion for science and change the way you experience the world.

Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

What an amazing book, chemistry broken down into easily consumable chapters with real life examples.

Amazing!!!

I was a chemistry major in college, and then went to medical school.
And have practiced medicine for 40 years.
You have reminded me of so many wonderful things and made connections that I have either forgotten or never knew.
I wish I had listened to this as a freshman in college

Connecting the dots

The author's enthusiasm for chemistry is very evident and makes it a better listen. She does a great job of explaining how chemistry is involved in everyday objects around the house, and life.

Great Listen

This is an amazing audio book by Dr Kate Biberdorf on everyday chemistry. I have listened several times and enjoyed it so much that I also purchased the hard copy. The book is broken down into two main sections. Part 1 is all about the basics including atomic structure including great history lessons. Part 2 begins with her day and all the chemistry outside of the classroom that occurs. From the kitchen and the chemistry behind cooking to a complete synopsis of her daily routine in detail. It's awesome when the author is also the narrator, as it adds so much to the reality of the content. Dr Kate Biberdorf is a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Texas at Austin. Dr Biberdorf is not only professional scientist but also an excellent narrator. I highly recommend this audio book and have given it 5 starts all the way. This is truly "Education Personified"!

I struggled through chemistry as a second time college student and this book really helped me piece together the info I had learned in CHM 113, making CHM 116 so much easier to grasp. Highly recommended read.

So helpful!

I am a 80 year old PhD in chemical engineering, and I found this book to be an amazing refresher course and relearning about many things. I only touched on so many decades ago it could be thought of as required reading for a large swap of the public.

Awesome!

As a PhD organic chemist and former professor of several university-level chemistry courses, this was very well put together and narrated - at least for the introductory technical chapters. I would give those parts at least 4.5 stars. It was fun to reminisce about my former teaching days and how I presented the concepts. I think the author did an excellent job with presenting those basic concepts. Then my impression changed as the book went into subjects and presentations that just did not resonate with me. Perhaps I will finish the last couple of chapters another time which may change my opinion.

Hmmmm ….
