4.0 out of 5 stars
An interesting take on chemistry...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Art in Chemistry; Chemistry in Art: (Paperback)
This is an interesting resource for classroom teachers looking for alternative ways to get chemistry into art students. However, I found the book not very useful for my purposes homeschooling a teen interested in art. The labs are designed for school labs with expensive equipment and chemicals we can't get for home use. The presentation is not really graphic enough to appeal to my arts oriented child. However, there is a new edition of the book coming out this fall (2002), according to the publisher, and maybe it will improve some of these things. Sample labs included how to make oil paint binder. All the labs relate to the arts in some way. There is a section on colour and one on metal jewelry making. It covers a lot of high school chemistry in an art friendly way. An interesting read that both my daughter and I were disappointed we couldn't use.Jean |
