What We Eat From a Chemical Perspective: A Book About Unpalatable and Unhealthy Foods
14.99 €
Science columnist Petr Obraztsov and his classmate in the Chemistry Department at Moscow State University, the renowned poet Bakhyt Kenjeev, have written an engaging, funny, and universally useful book about food from a chemical perspective. After all, even those whose knowledge of chemistry is lost in the distant past of school cannot live without food, and therefore, they too should be concerned about the transformations that occur in the human body when they consume it.

The authors devote special attention to debunking various myths and rumors, explaining why we shouldn't believe the horror stories about cholesterol, gluten, and trans fats, and highlighting the mistakes that even renowned scientists make when discussing the everyday foods and drinks we all share. This book is so good because it instills in the reader a healthy attitude towards food (both literally and figuratively), awakens their imagination, and shows, using specific examples, that chemistry is not just formulas in a textbook, but also a fascinating science that is indispensable.
