Gray begins with an explanation of how atoms bond to
form molecules and compounds, as well as the difference
between organic and inorganic chemistry. He then goes
on to explore the vast array of materials molecules can
create, including: soaps and solvents; goops and oils;
rocks and ores; ropes and bers; painkillers and dangerous
drugs; sweeteners; perfumes and stink bombs; colors and
pigments; and controversial compounds including asbestos,
CFCs, and thimerosal.
Big, gorgeous photographs, as well as diagrams of the
compounds and their chemical bonds, rendered with never
before seen beauty, accompany each discussion. Smaller
images capture molecules in their various states and
include stop-motion-photography of fascinating natural and
unnatural phenomena.
As he did in The Elements, Gray shows us molecules
as weve never seen them before. Its the perfect book for
his loyal fans whove been eager for more and for anyone
fascinated with the mysteries of the material world.
E
verything physical is made up of the elements and
the innite variety of molecules they form when they
combine with each other. In Molecules, Theodore Gray
takes the next step in the grand story that began with the
periodic table in his best-selling book, The Elements: A
Visual Exploration of Every Known Atom in the Universe.
Here, he explores through fascinating stories and trademark
stunning photography the most interesting, essential,
useful, and beautiful of the millions of chemical structures
that make up every material in the world.

F ORMS OF C ANNABI S
In arid climates, such as Afghanistan or the Beqaa Valley of Lebanon,
harvested cannabis has for centuries been dried and sieved to collect its
cannabinoid-rich gland heads. This collected resin powder is pressed into
hashish. In India, felds of unpollinated female cannabis fowers are cultivated
to produce ganja, a potent marijuana preparation of these dried fowers.
In the 1960s, hippies returning to California from India brought with them
this Indian technique for producing seedless cannabis, dubbing it sinsemilla
(see pages 2223).
In Afghanistan in the early 1970s, the
Brotherhood of Eternal Love, a group of
smugglers comprised of surfers originally
from Huntington Beach, California, employed
the extraction technologies developed back
in California to make ultra-concentrated oil
from Afghan hashish. Hash oil, being more
concentrated, was easier to smuggle than
conventional hashish. Forty years later, this
innovation would spark the dabbing craze
inhaling vaporized cannabis oilamong
West Coast medical cannabis patients.
Flowers
Many cannabis varieties are harvested outdoors
in California in September and October, and
some tropical varieties do not fnish fowering
until the winter solstice. Flowers are harvested
and carefully dried and manicured to remove
extraneous leaf. However, the defnition of
extraneous is controversial, since some patients
prefer all leaf to be removed, while others insist
that keeping the leaves intact helps to protect
delicate trichomes. The correct approach
typically depends on whether the cost of keeping
those leaves is an issue. The money-is-no-object
approach keeps the smaller leaves to protect the
fowers. Keeping these leaves intact reduces the
likelihood of rupturing the trichomes on the dried
cannabis fowers, which hastens spoilage.
Outdoor Cultivation Cannabis loves
sunshine. The cannabis plant fourishes outdoors
from Alaska to Brazil, from Vietnam to Chinese
Turkestan, to Humboldt County in California.
A large number of indigenous cannabis varieties,
called landrace varieties, have acclimated
outdoors to different locales around the globe.
These landraces exhibit a much wider range
of characteristics than the common medicinal
varieties currently cultivated in the United
States. Some tropical outdoor landraces of
cannabis, such as Thai or Colombian varieties,
are not ready for harvest until weeks after the
All medical cannabis plants in the United States, Europe,
and Israel are seedless females. Unfertilized, seedless owers
of the female cannabis plant produce far more medicinal resin
than fertilized females. Female owers produced with this
technique are called sinsemilla, or ganja in South Asia where
the approach was developed. The technique of preventing female
pollination, which was developed in India in the early nineteenth
century, consists of culling any male plants before they release
pollen. This approach was brought to the United States in the late
1960s and became more widespread in Western countries by the
late 1970s. Today, this technique of producing seedless cannabis
is widely used, from the Manali slopes of northern India to GW

GREEK-STYLE YOGURT
Super-creamy Greek yogurt is much easier to make than
you might think. The secret is in the draining. Once made,
the yogurt keeps for a week. Whole milk results in rich,
creamy yogurt.
| In a large saucepan, heat the milk to 110F (43 C). Its a good idea to
use a candy-making or other cooking thermometer to determine the exact
temperature. Add the yogurt culture or goats milk yogurt and stir well.
| Pour the mixture into a large (preferably oven-safe glass) container or into
a pressure cooker. Cook the yogurt for 3 hours in the oven or 8 hours in a
pressure cooker (see p. 19).
| Line a fne-mesh sieve with a piece of muslin or similar cloth and set the
sieve over a large bowl. Pour the cooked yogurt onto the cloth and let it
drain into the bowl. Put the bowl, with the sieve on it, in the fridge for 2 to 4
hours. The yogurt will drain and become thick.
| When the yogurt is as thick as you like it, transfer it to a sealed container
or eat it immediately.
| The yogurt will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator.

Imagine a rich, chocolate spread flavored with hazelnuts.
Sure, its almost a sinful explosion of calories, but once
tasted, impossible to resist.
| Heat the oven to 350F (177 C).
| Spread the hazelnuts in a single layer in a shallow metal pan and roast
for about 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and let the nuts cool
for about 5 minutes.
| When cool enough to handle, rub the hazelnuts between your fngertips
to remove the skins. (You could also rub them with the folds of a clean dish

Civil War in 3D
The Life and Death of the Soldier
Michael Stephenson
The everyday experiences of Union and Confederate
soldiers are vividly captured in historic 3D images,
seen through an accompanying stereoscopic viewer,
in this unique book-and-box format.
T
he life of a soldier during the Civil War, whether Union or
Confederate, was brutally hard and tremendously bleak
in ways that are difcult to fathom. Yet, the war also had its
moments of heroism, pride, and humanity. The Civil War in 3D
transports us to this dening time in our countrys history and
puts us right in the middle of the battlegrounds.
This unique book-and-box format includes 35 stereoscopic
photographs, a sturdy metal stereoscopic viewer through which
to see them, and a 176-page illustrated paperback book that tells
of the war from the soldiers perspective, including rsthand
descriptions in the form of letters and diaries. What they ate,
where they slept, how they lled the long hours while waiting for
the next battle to start, and other aspects of their gritty existence
are presented along with a timeline of the war that puts the
experiences described into context.
The 35 3D photographs, many culled from the Smithsonian
archive, include images of soldiers building winter quarters,
preparing food in the mess hall, bathing in a river in Virginia, waiting
at the depot to be transported to the front lines, building roads,
following the wagon trains from battle to battle, and recuperating
from wounds in hospitals. Detailed descriptions of the scenes
depicted in the photographs are included on the back of each card.
Smithsonian Institution is the most visited museum complex in the
world, with more than 30 million annual visitors.
Michael Stephenson is an editor, military historian, and the author of
numerous books, including The Last Full Measure: How Soldiers Die
in Battle, Patriot Battles: How
the War of Independence Was
Fought, National Geographics
Battlegrounds: Geography and the
History of Warfare, and The Nuclear
Dictionary. Stephenson is also the
former editor of the Military Book

Deep Space
Beyond the Solar System to the End of the
Universe and the Beginning of Time
Govert Schilling
Govert Schilling explores the mysteries of space that
lie beyond our solar system on this mind-bending
trip to nebulae, galaxies, black holes, and the edge of
the observable universe.
J
oin Govert Schilling on a journey across the universe that will
ignite the imagination. The trip begins inside our own solar
system with a brief tour of the sun, the planets and their moons,
asteroids, comets, and dwarf planets. We then accelerate
into deep space, traveling from our interstellar neighborhood,
through our own galaxy, the Milky Way, to the far reaches of the
cosmos.
With Schilling as our guide, we explore the birth of stars
and stellar nurseries, such as the Orion and Carina Nebulae;
the death of stars, from red giants to catastrophic supernova
explosions; and galaxies and galaxy clusters beyond our own
including spiral galaxies, elliptical galaxies, and lenticular
galaxies. We learn about supermassive black holes, which
astronomers now believe exist at the center of every galaxy
including our own, and exoplanets, billions of which are believed
to be orbiting stars in the Milky Way and beyond. The book
concludes at the edge of the cosmological horizon with a look at
dark matter, dark energy, and theories of extraterrestrial life and
the Multiverse.
Including hundreds of photographs and custom illustrations,
as well as a star atlas that shows the full celestial sky, Deep
Space is the perfect book for astronomy buffs, students, and
anyone fascinated with the mystery and beauty of the cosmos.
Govert Schilling is an internationally acclaimed astronomy
journalist and writer. He is a regular contributor to New Scientist,
Sky & Telescope, and Sky at Night. In 2007, asteroid 10986 was named
Govert in his honor by the International Astronomical Union.
He lives in Amersfoort, the Netherlands.
