Description and Table of Contents
Description
This lively autobiography begins with the neighborhood lots of New York where the author began experimenting with organic synthesis, resulting in his first publication while he was still living with his parents. Streitwieser traces his remarkable career from his early research in "wet" chemistry at Berkeley through his work on ab initio theoretical calculations and his "invention" of an entirely new series of compounds, the uranocenes, analogs to the
ferrocenes.
