Chemistry not feel relevant to you? Why bother learning about molecules, atoms and compounds you may wonder.
Chemicals are present in your food, they are in the air around you, they are IN you. Why not find out something about the world around you and how chemicals fit in to yourlife. There's a great book out there called "Molecules at an Exhibition" by John Emsley in which you can read about some of the assorted gallery of chemicals that we encounter every day, presented as portraits with all their properties and some interesting facts.
The chemicals in Coca Cola and Chocolate are laid bare, vital life chemicals are in there, smelly chemicals, weird chemicals all presented in a readable, well presented, easily digested volume.
