Even though there are some examples of screen chemistry between the actors and of behind-the-scenes special effects, this book is really about the chemistry when it is part of the narrative. It is about the dualities of Dr. Jekyll vs. inventor chemists, the invisible man vs. forensic chemists, chemical weapons vs. classroom chemistry, chemical companies that knowingly pollute the environment vs. altruistic research chemists trying to make the world a better place to live, and, finally, about people who choose to experiment with mind-altering drugs vs. the drug discovery process.Oxford scholarship online.Science in motion picturesScience in motion pictures.791.43/66Griep Mark1578579Mikasen MarjorieMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910798159803321Reaction3858091UNINA
