Molecular Origami: Precision Scale Models from Paper

Editorial Reviews
New Scientist
"Each pattern comes complete with chemistry questions to set students thinking."

Book Description
This is a fun, hands-on guide to understanding the basic structure and chemistry of matter. Drawing on the Japanese art of paperfolding, the book provides rip-out patterns for 124 molecules, along with easy instructions for folding them into scale models, many of which are three-dimensional. The molecules progress from simple ones like methane to more exotic structures such as quartz and buckminsterfullerenes. Questions and discussions are included.
