Reviews

Chemistry has weathered the turbulent 20th century while navigating its evolving status within both academia and society … Chemistry is indisputably essential to industrial infrastructure and the addressing of environmental issues, and its importance in research and education continues to grow. A defining characteristic of 20th-century chemistry is the blurring of boundaries with fields such as physics, biology, and medicine. The question of how to define and approach the contours of chemistry offers a compelling perspective for the history or philosophy of the discipline.
