I've been waiting to get my hands on this one. Theo Gray has the temerity to show you how to do some experiments that must have given the publisher's lawyers fits.

Making salt? Sure. Sugar rockets? Check. Thermite?!? You betcha.

I'm really liking this movement back to giving readers a bit of credit. We're capable of thinking for ourselves and following directions and it's refreshing to be treated like an adult.

I've just begun reading. Great discussion of the autopen. Annoying, belligerent, failure to distinguish between motor (which is about movement), and engine (which is about transformation of energy). Signs put up by bureaucrats are not the slam-dunk that he thinks they are.

Near the end it got a bit repetitive. The lanthanides just have a lot of properties in common and there doesn't need to be a separate page for each one.
