Nobel laureate Roald Hoffmann's contributions to chemistry are well known. Less        well known, however, is that over a career that spans nearly fifty years, Hoffmann        has thought and written extensively about a wide variety of other topics, such as        chemistry's relationship to philosophy, literature, and the arts, including the        nature of chemical reasoning, the role of symbolism and writing in science, and the        relationship between art and craft and science. In Roald Hoffmann on the Philosophy,        Art, and Science of Chemistry, Jeffrey Kovac and Michael Weisberg bring together        twenty-eight of Hoffmann's most important essays. Gathered here are Hoffmann's most        philosophically significant and interesting essays and lectures, many of which are        not widely accessible. In essays such as "e;Why Buy That Theory,"e; "e;Nearly Circular        Reasoning,"e; "e;How Should Chemists Think,"e; "e;The Metaphor, Unchained,"e; "e;Art in        Science,"e; and "e;Molecular Beauty,"e; we find the mature reflections of one of America's        leading scientists. Organized under the general headings of Chemical Reasoning and        Explanation, Writing and Communicating, Art and Science, Education, and Ethics,        these stimulating essays provide invaluable insight into the teaching and practice        of science.
