| Description | Blue cloth hardcover with unclipped dust jacket. I think like most children, I got interested in nature very early. And then by reading a little book called The Young Chemist by Sherwood Taylor, I got interested in actually doing chemical experiments. So I started my career as a garage chemist, buying chemicals from the local pharmacist and making things according to the prescriptions then, and going forward to more experiments, just on that basis. I then started - still while I was at school - extracting pigments from petals and just doing really cookbook chemistry, on that basis. |
