I've just started "The Disappearing Spoon: And Other True Tales of Madness, Love, and the History of the World from the Periodic Table of the Elements" by Sam Kean. It's a delightful romp through the Periodic Table using historical anecdotes/literary references, etc. to explore the wondrous structure encapsulated in the large chart we remember from high school chemistry! It was amazing to realize how much of the Table I still remembered!
