DR. JOE SCHWARCZ is director of McGill University's Office of Science and Society, where he teaches courses on nutrition and the applications of chemistry to everyday life. Among his many honours are the Royal Society of Canada's McNeil Award, and the American Chemistry Society's renowned Grady-Stack Award, of which he is the only non-American recipient. Dr. Schwarcz is the host of a weekly radio show on CFRB in Toronto and CJAD in Montreal, and writes a weekly column for the Montreal Gazette. The author lives in Montreal.
“[Joe Schwarcz] is the Carl Sagan of chemistry, explaining it to
the public and demonstrating its wonders… The Right Chemistry is a
worthy addition to the series of similar books Dr. Joe has
published. He has a gift for making science fascinating and
fun… His style is entertaining, and his dry sense of humor
always makes me laugh. To paraphrase Bill Nye the Science Guy,
‘Chemistry rules!’ Pseudoscience can’t even begin to compete with
the attractions of real science.”
—Harriet Hall, Skeptic magazine.
