xNapoleon buttons
How Seventeen Particles Changed History
Author Name: Beni Le Couture and Guy Porson
Many factors have been suggested as the cause of the failure of Napoleon's Russian campaign in 1812, but the most bizarre is its connection to something infinitely small: a button that fastened the coats and trousers of Napoleon's infantry. When temperatures dropped below zero, the tin from which the button was made crumbled and turned into powder, penetrating the soldiers' bodies with the cold. Consider how our current world would change if the button had been made of a different material and changed history. This book includes the stories of seventeen chemical molecules that have had a pivotal impact on the course of history, such as spices that caused genocide or how cosmetic injections were invented. The authors reveal the astonishing chemical connections between historical events and chemical elements.
