Hi Ralph,
I used mainly short stories, rather than novels, to keep the reading from
becoming burdensome. See the first topic Science fiction materials I use
in my classroom. Due to copyright restrictions, I could not post these
stories on my website.
I hope this is helpful.
David

[DCHAS-L] Chemistry-oriented science fiction?
I'm thinking about the safety culture presentations I'll be
giving next week (better before the presentation than during) and one question
that occurred to me is "what examples of science fiction are there that are
primarily focused on chemistry and/or chemical safety as a key topic?" I
suspect that there are people who are better versed in this literature than I
and I'd appreciate examples that come quickly to mind.
I'd also be
interested in examples of specific books you may have had as children (age 12
and under) that got you interested in science outside of school.
Thanks
for any information on these questions.
