About the book

Primo Levi's The Periodic Table is a collection of autobiographical pieces structured around chemical elements. Drawing on his career as a chemist, his Jewish upbringing and his experiences during the twentieth century, Levi connects scientific matter with memory and human character. The result is an unusual blend of memoir, fiction and reflection on the relationship between chemistry and life.
