As to Chemistry in a Humanities course, perhaps it's the historical approach which gets to some pretty fundamental ideas about cause and effect, and human health. I remember (badly) a great story about the great Danish chemist/physics Bohr, as an undergraduate. His instructor had given a poor exam question Larry M.

Nowadays, some schools don't even do chemisty as a single subject, but combined, "21st century" science instead e.g. a Titanic module looking at the chemistry of metals eroding and the physics of forces on the ship. It sounds more fun!Veggie Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18341981466609953937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11026109.post-49627562843026805682009-02-07T20:45:00.000+01:002009-02-07T20:45:00.000+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Veggie Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18341981466609953937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11026109.post-50700152680681588492009-02-07T18:32:00.000+01:002009-02-07T18:32:00.000+01:00Chemistry? *runs away ashamed at knowing nothing*Y...Chemistry? *runs away ashamed at knowing <I>nothing*</I><BR/><BR/>Your course is certainly a brain stretcher!Lane Mathiashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08147122748453850264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11026109.post-28982687466458816772009-02-07T18:24:00.000+01:002009-02-07T18:24:00.000+01:00Shurely shome mishtake - La Chimie (or is it la ch...Shurely shome mishtake - La Chimie (or is it la chemie) dans le monde des arts??!
