I don't think
that I've
seen this one suggested. I use it to provide some organic chemistry for my

Hi,
I'm a community college chemistry instructor and I don't know any hist
ory
of chemistry. I'm trying to remedy that.
Does anyone know of good, interesting chemistry history books or
references? Also, any good resources for history of chemists tha
t
might be interesting and/or have interesting anecdotes?
