IST Press publishes the book “Haja Luz! Uma História da Química através de tudo!”

«The IST Press published the book “Haja Luz! Uma História da Química através de tudo!” by Jorge Calado.

Originally published in the International Year of Chemistry (2011), the book “Haja Luz!” was considered by António Barreto to be “an astonishing book of rare intelligence and great culture”, while Roald Hoffmann, winner of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, in 1981, recognised that only Jorge Calado, with “his passion for science […], images and words” could have created such a seductive book, written with such verve.

“Haja Luz!” now returns in an updated 4th edition.»
