Take a deep dive into how eight inventions shaped the human experience forever. You can read this technology tome with us this November.
Welcome to the SciFri Book Club page about The Alchemy of Us. There’s lots of ways to participate: Read the book, join our community space, attend an event, sign up for our email newsletter, or send a message on the SciFri VoxPop app.
This November, the SciFri Book Club will read The Alchemy of Us: How Humans and Matter Transformed One Another by Ainissa Ramirez.
This Book Club season kicks off Wednesday, November 1, and you can read along with us! Check back here for more updates about this Book Club pick soon.
Grab Your Own Copy
If you’d like to purchase a physical copy, we encourage you to start local! Check out the SciFri Book Club partner bookstores and libraries—if you’re in the area, consider supporting your local bookseller or public library (plus, mention our Book Club for a percentage off your purchase at participating shops!).
If they don’t have the book in stock or you’d rather purchase online, you can support Science Friday by buying your copy on our Bookshop.org page.
Join Our Community Space
And as you start reading, join us on our online community space: the SciFri Book Club is on Mighty Networks, a platform where we can gather, read and discuss science books together. We’ve built this community space to create a better way for readers to stay connected with other Book Clubbers, and we hope you’ll join us there!
