Яды: великолепная история человечества

Each molecule has a fascinating story; I wonder how the author selected which ones to focus on and what made them stand out historically.

The blend of chemistry and crime was compelling, but I kept wondering if the science was accessible enough for general readers or if it leaned more technical.

The way the book ties each poison to a specific killer or event was engaging — I wonder if this was a thematic choice or driven by the available historical cases.
