michael5000's review against another edition
2.0
I've tried twice to learn something about chemistry from this book, with very little takeaway. Unlike in Gonick's superb history books, the illustrations here are neither helpful nor particularly funny. I suspect it is best used as a refresher text for someone who already knows the stuff, but just needs a refresher.

Kinda skimmed over most of the second half since I'm not teaching much of the math of chemistry to the kids at this time. But I got some good metaphors and feel generally refreshed in my knowledge of the subject, so yay!
