"The periodic table is one of the most potent icons in science. It lies at the core of chemistry and embodies the most fundamental principles of the field. This book provides a successor to van Spronsen's classic book on the subject, but goes further in evaluating the extent to which modern physics has explained the periodic system."--BOOK JACKET.
