EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CHEMISTRY TO SURVIVE ANOTHER DAY - WOJCIECH ORLIŃSKI

Have you ever wondered which electrons could use Tinder? Why did we stop washing ourselves with sand and ashes? What did ancient kings and modern politicians need chemistry for? And is chemistry even useful to us in life? If, like the first alchemists, you are groping in the dark, having a vague idea about chemistry, and the Mendeleev table still seems incomplete, this book is for you. You remember from childhood that combining baking powder and water causes an explosion, but you don't know where it comes from? Let's go back to the basics of chemistry and finally get to know it well. Wojciech Orliński, an unusual chemistry teacher and pop culture researcher, explains everything you need to know to survive another day or pass your high school diploma.

• Chemistry is everywhere: We meet it when visiting the Acropolis, watching James Bond movies and listening to Kurt Cobain songs.
• Chemistry and pop culture: Without chemistry, there is no life and - as it turns out - no pop culture either. It is enough to read Stanisław Lem and watch Breaking Bad.
• Who is this book for?: BUM! is a book for everyone who was (or still is) a bored chemistry student.
• Unique approach: Instead of textbook lectures - an explosive mixture of the most interesting knowledge.
• Author with passion: Take 30 years of the author's journalistic experience and a portion of writing skills. Add the practice of a chemistry teacher. Add a fascination with the series Breaking Bad. Carefully add razor-sharp humor. Mix and BUM! A book has just been created, thanks to which you will feel chemistry for chemistry!

Wojciech Orliński, the author of the book, has a wonderful ability to explain laws, rules and chemical equations using simple metaphors. The chemistry in his book becomes an enchanting story about the dance of electrons and atoms that make up the world around us - scents, tastes, colors and textures. If school textbooks were even remotely as engaging, chemistry would certainly not be in the ranking of the most disliked subjects. Piotr Cieśliński from "Gazeta Wyborcza" emphasizes that Orliński has a gift for conveying knowledge in an accessible and fascinating way.

Discover the fascinating world of chemistry in the company of Yennefer from the Witcher saga and Stanisław Lem's robots! Find out why Chanel N5 perfumes revolutionized the cosmetics industry and how a banana dose of radiation works. Regardless of whether you are a student, a student, or just a curious person - this book will make you look at chemistry from a new, exciting perspective. Konrad Skotnicki, Doctor from TikTok, encourages reading, emphasizing that this book opens your eyes to chemistry in a way we have never experienced before.

The book "BUM! Everything you need to know about chemistry to survive another day" is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the basics of chemistry in an accessible and fun way. The author, Wojciech Orliński, passionately and humorously introduces the reader to the world of atoms, electrons and chemical reactions, showing that chemistry is present in every aspect of our lives. Regardless of whether you are a student preparing for your high school diploma, or just a curious person, this book will certainly interest you and inspire you to further explore chemical knowledge.
