About History of Chemistry, Volume II. From 1850-1910

Dive into the captivating world of chemistry during a transformative era from the mid-19th century to the early 20th century. This volume explores significant advancements in inorganic, organic, and physical chemistry, spotlighting pioneering figures such as Mendeleev, Liebig, Williamson, and Dewar. Discover how the identification of new elements and the evolving understanding of molecular structure and reactivity laid the groundwork for modern chemistry. With insights into the early days of organic synthesis and stereoisomerism, this narrative illustrates the ongoing relevance of Thorpes observation in Chapter 10 “Organic chemistry has been largely developed by the discovery from time to time of special reagents and special types of reactions which have shown themselves to be capable of extensive application.” Join us as we unravel the scientific breakthroughs that shaped the 20th century and beyond. (Summary by J. M. Smallheer)

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
