Caesar's Last Breath: Decoding the Secrets of the Air Around Us by Sam Kean
informative
slow-paced
3.0
Has some interesting anecdotes in the middle of the book that I really enjoyed learning about. Has a good refresher of basic chemistry and physics relating to gases, the atmosphere, and tells the history of how gases were formed, components discovered over time, how they lead to modern technologies and eventually, polluting the environment. Slow at times but enjoyed it overall.
