Fun to learn
Fun to learn, but difficult to read the small print. Hopefully, there will be audible so it may be both read and heard, next time. It was very educational and enjoyable.

Content is 5 star. Digital format demands 1 star
The information contained in this book provides a solid and diverse baseline for understanding chemistry and how it can be applied. Some of the little tidbits even provided new insights on chemical properties to someone who worked professionally with a wide variety of chemicals for six decades. Unfortunately the horrendous clipping format which manifests in the kindle version renders digital copies unusable. I would highly recommend a hardcopy but cannot suggest that anyone purchase the digital copy for use in a tablet.

Kindle edition is terrible
The kindle edition is terrible. The pages are not in the correct order. They are all scans of the page and no text is selectable.

Impossible to read in Kindle version - needs a major repair job - disappointing
From what I can see of it, this is a great book but it's impossible to read in the Kindle version. Each page is cut in half and displayed sideways. I locked the screen and tried to read it in portrait mode but the pages are still cut in half so it didn't help. All the diagrams are cut in half if they fall in the middle of a page and that makes them impossible to understand. Publishers, please fix this.

Great book with so much interesting information!
My kids are doing physical science and chemistry in school now, and I bought this book to help us all learn more about the elements. I love all of the pictures and interesting information to make studying the elements more practical!

No formato Kindle é desastroso
Devo registrar que a Amazon alerta que a versão Kindle está sob revisão. Este status deve ser posterior a eu tê-la baixado. No arquivo que tenho as páginas estão todas bagunçadas, fora de ordem. A visualização é péssima pela característica de páginas duplas. Só se consegue ver uma página de cada vez, o que corta boa parte das figuras. Não é à toa que não está mais disponível. Espero poder atualizar quando estiver OK (se algum dia ficar...)
