"This title will bring to life any student bored with this essential subject dealing with the nonmetals on the periodic table. Readers will be fascinated by the "Chemistry in Action" fact boxes about how nonmetals work in real life, such as how hydrogen is used in car fuel cells, how carbon is what diamonds are made of, and how carbon dating is used to determine the age of substances. The vivid imagery and illustrations will further entice readers along with a biography section profiling Henry Cavendish, discoverer of hydrogen."
