In the early 19th century chemists knew of the existence of 92 chemical elements, from Hydrogen, the lightest, to Uranium, the heaviest. In the late 1930s the world of chemical science began to discover elements beyond Uranium - the 'transuranics'. This title tells the story of the author's quest to discover elements never before known to man.
