Our everyday life — daily chemistry. In the bathroom, in the kitchen, in the car, pharmacy and even in nature. Behind the simplest words — from spices to antiseptic &mdash, there is a complex formula and a few chemical compounds with scary names, which interact with each other in one or another way (unintelligible for us often).

In the book chemist-toxicologist Volodymyr Sarkisyan explains how on the chemical level function things and phenomena with which we encounter every day, — cooking food, cleaning and cleaning, buying medicines, road burn. There are not only formulas and schemes, but also practical examples. When is it necessary to salt greased potatoes and why can't a homeopath cure anyone (as well as cure them)? What is the principle behind marijuana, pesticides and shampoo? Where did milk, antiseptic and miracle creams «all in one» come from? Volodymyr Sarkisyan tells us all about it, explaining the principle of action of simple spolukes and substances, sharing at the same time with culinary tricks and stories from Pliny, Dumas and Agathi Krysti.
