The laws of thermodynamics drive everything that happens in the universe. From the sudden expansion of a cloud of gas to the cooling of hot metal--everything is moved or restrained by four simple laws. Written by Peter Atkins, one of the world's leading authorities on thermodynamics, this powerful and compact introduction explains what these four laws are and how they work, using accessible language and virtually no mathematics. Guiding the reader a step at a time, Atkins begins with Zeroth (so named because the first two laws were well established before scientists realized that a third law, relating to temperature, should precede them--hence the jocular name zeroth), and proceeds through the First, Second, and Third Laws, offering a clear account of concepts such as the availability of work and the conservation of energy. Atkins ranges from the fascinating theory of entropy (revealing how its unstoppable rise constitutes the engine of the universe), through the concept of free energy, and to the brink, and then beyond the brink, of absolute zero. About the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.Binding Type: Hardcover

Love this. A little goes a long way.
This works great. I almost didn’t buy this initially because it’s so expensive for a little tube, but a little goes a long way! A dot smaller than the size of a pea is enough to lightly cover my face and neck. It blends into my skin nicely (I’m a medium complexion, caucasian woman).
I don’t wear makeup foundation any more (haven’t for years), but I need sun protection and I’m very selective about ingredients. This product is approved on both the “Bobby Approved” and “Yuka” apps as having clean ingredients.

Good quality and works well
We love the think products and rarely get sunburns while wearing. Some of the products go in white because of the minerals so it takes a big to rub it all in.

Amazing!
As an adult who has very sensitive skin, I love this product & use it daily. Every other product I have used before would burn my skin, turn it red, or my eyes would be sensitive towards it if it was near them. This is perfect but apply lightly it is thick.
