He introduces the young reader to people like Von Helmont, Boyle, Stahl, Priestly, Cavendish, Lavoisier, and many others, all incredibly diverse in personality and approach, who have laid the groundwork for a search and a mystery that is still unfolding to this day.  Although Wiker\u2019s style is so friendly that this book could be used with some benefit by even 12 or 13 year olds, yet the ideas underneath, and the progression of those ideas, will keep the high schooler plenty challenged.  This book is an important &#8220;warm up&#8221; to get the big picture before beginning any modern chemistry book.
