Patrick Coffey

Patrick Coffey is also the author of Cathedrals of Science (Oxford University Press, 2008), a nonfiction examination of the rivalries that shaped modern chemistry. Publishers Weekly called it "an engrossing, often somber history." Chemistry World called it "A gripping page-turning narrative that elegantly combines popular science with a serious history of science." That book was positively blurbed by two Nobel laureates.
