A beer-reviewed, Funny Chemistry Book (Satire)
“pHck, was my degree choice a mistake?“
Max is an average student who picked chemistry by elimination: “It cannot be worse than math or physics”. At Beaker University, 50% of students don’t survive the first semester, and 99±5% of students develop a profound disillusionment with empirical reality. The professors are determined to prove both statistics right.
This funny chemistry book follows Max and his cohort through their first semester: impossible problem sets, fake reaction yields, safety protocols violated by the people teaching them – told by someone who is just happy to have made it out of the lab alive.
Perfect for: Current chemistry students and other STEM survivors. Future students: This is your warning. Professional chemists: I hope some giggles can heal your scars.
Warning: Contains traumatic encounters with professors, sarcasm, and career regret.
I’d like to think that this is indeed a funny chemistry book, but flip through the preview pages (gallery above). If those do not resonate at all with you, better not get this one! If you get it, let me know how you liked it by leaving a review on Amazon or on Goodreads!
