A call went out to the world’ s scientists to find a solution.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n This is the story of the two men who found it: brilliant, self-important Fritz Haber and reclusive, alcoholic Carl Bosch. Together they discovered a way to make bread out of air, built city-sized factories, and saved millions of lives.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n But their epochal triumph came at a price we are still paying. The Haber-Bosch process was also used to make the gunpowder and explosives that killed millions during the two world wars. Both men were vilified during their lives; both, disillusioned and disgraced, died tragically.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n The Alchemy of Air is the extraordinary, previously untold story of a discovery that changed the way we grow food and the way we make war–and that promises to continue shaping our lives in fundamental and dramatic ways.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":54064981279083,"sku":"YSL13899","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/1674\/0203\/files\/71lkE98fVzL._SY1500.jpg?v=1792054192","url":"https:\/\/www.booktavero.com\/products\/b001eugcts","provider":"BookTavero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
