Hand holding a copy of Chain Reactions A Hopeful History of Uranium. The book has lots of colourful tabs showing wear the reader has marked sections.

My book uncovers the hidden history and surprising everyday impact of this powerful elementβ€”because science isn't just in labs; it's woven into our stories. Ready to see uranium in a whole new light? βš›οΈβœ¨
