The Chemistry of the Radio-Elements is a pioneering work in the field of radiochemistry, which studies the properties and behavior of radioactive elements. This book is the first part of a two-part series and provides a detailed examination of the physical and chemical properties of various radioactive elements such as radium, thorium, and uranium. The author, Frederick Soddy, was a British chemist and Nobel laureate who made significant contributions to the field of radioactivity in the early 20th century.

Exploring the intersection of physical science and economic theory, this work presents two lectures by Frederick Soddy that apply scientific principles to state stewardship. Delivered to student unions in the early 20th century, these lectures form part of a broader series that sought to challenge conventional economic thought. Despite facing rejection during his time, Soddy's theories draw on tangible real-world examples and resonate with concepts such as the laws of thermodynamics, highlighting the relevance of scientific insights in understanding economic systems.
