The Chemical Sciences in Society: what may one expect in a series with such a title? . The chemical sciences in society thus offer a rewarding field for serious study.

The Chemical Sciences in Society: what may one expect in a series with such a title? The question is legitimate. The answer is important. The aim of the present series is to capture the best of the scholarship developing in this field, whether it deals with recent events or with more traditionally "historical" periods. Our desire is not to be partisan, but to be serious and balanced. The Beckman Center for the History of Chemistry is committed to helping bring into being a deeper, more reflective analysis of the chemical sciences.

Fred Aftalion (born 2 May 1922) is a chemical engineer who has held leadership positions in the French chemical industry for three decades. Fred Aftalion has also served as Vice-President of ALEPS, the Association pour la Liberte Economique et le Progres Social (Association of Liberal Economists). He has written a number of books dealing with chemistry, industry and society.

Translated by Otto Theodor Benfey. Philadelphia: Chemical Heritage Press, 2001.

Otto Theodor Benfey was born on 31 October 1925, to Eduard Benfey and his .

His translations include The Japanese and Western Science by Masao Watanabe, The History of the International Chemical Industry by Fred Aftalion, and My 132 Semesters of Chemistry Studies by Vladimir Prelog. His books include From vital force to structural formulas (1964), Introduction to Organic Reaction Mechanisms (1970), and Robert Burns Woodward. Otto Theodor Benfey was born on 31 October 1925, to Eduard Benfey and his second wife, Lotte Maria (Fleischmann) Benfey, in Berlin, Germany.

Fred Aftalion's international perspective of the history of chemistry integrates the story of chemical science . The Chemical Sciences inSociety: what may one expect in a series with such a title? The question is legitimate. Aftalion explores the pitfalls these companies encountered as well as the successes of "contrarians"-those companies that remained broad and diversified. He uses BASF, Dow, and Bayer as examples of true contrarians.

An excellent book for those wishing to understand how the chemical industry evolved.
My father was a chemist and worked for dupont-this reminds me of his many stories he told me. Although, I'm not a scientist , I did work in a chemical plant and purchased many of these products . Sadly, many of these products are no longer
made in the USA and all of those high-paying jobs have gone overseas.
I'm a little biased since I live in Wilmington,Delaware- home to many chemcial & pharma compaines. Chemicals demand respect and proper care or accidents will happen.

This is a very interesting book. It would be much more useful if it included an index for chemicals, too, and not just for people and companies. If it had an index for the chemicals, it would be very useful for undergraduate assignments and use. Maybe a searchable e-book would get around this deficit.

A good overview of the history of the development of the chemical industry. I include part of this information in my High School Chemistry classes to give the students some historical perspective of the science. Nice to have a good chunk of it in one reference.
