About
"In the late 1930s the world of chemical science began to discover elements beyond uranium - the "transuranics". These new super-heavy elements are probably not found in Nature at all, but they can be detected, even if only for a few fractions of a second, in precisely designed experiments using powerful nuclear tools." "This book is full of exciting new concepts and tells the story of the author's quest to discover elements never before known to man."--BOOK JACKET.
