Uncle Tungsten: Memories of a Chemical Boyhood

J

My View:   I read this book for 20 much-needed extra credit points in Chemistry. It is long, boring, tiresome, almost made me fall asleep on several occasions, and is only mildly interesting for about 5 minutes the whole time. A boring biography. I would feel like a cruel person recommending it to any teenager.
