Synopsis "An Elemental Philavery (in English)"
This book is about words that may be constructed using the symbols for the chemical elements, for example, crab comprises carbon (C), radium (Ra) and boron (B). About half the book is devoted to technical words, and introduces and draws on the Periodic Table at an informal level. The approach is to say the least whimsical, for example identifying the most valuable words and the most magnetic words with respect to their elemental constitution. The other half of the book showcases words in categories such as food, drink, people, etc. and encompasses terms both new and old, sometimes resurrecting antique gems that the author finds amusing or interesting. Elements and the Periodic Table have recently become quite popular in many TV quiz shows. This book will help you impress family and friends with your technical talents in this specialism, and for those who enjoy crosswords and similar puzzles there is a section devoted to word challenges ranging from the easy to the diabolical.
