Exploring the invisible energy that shines through matter, this book makes radioactivity clear and compelling. Frederick Soddy presents radium and the constant glow of radioactive change in straightforward, non-technical language, so curious readers can grasp the ideas shaping science and our view of nature.
This edition gathers the main substance of six popular lectures delivered at the University of Glasgow, then reorganized for continuous reading. It also includes concise updates on discoveries since those talks, including work on alpha particles and the measurement of helium produced by radio elements. The aim is to illuminate complex ideas with accuracy while remaining accessible to general readers.
