WELCOME Jeyaraj,

Click on the 'Unit Information' link to the left and then download the 'PDF file' that you see highlighed on that page and that will be your hitchhiker's guide to this very interesting and very different unit on chemical philosophy.

CBMS234 is a great unit for those interested in science and philosophy and in particular the good and evil sides of chemistry and chemicals. The unit has no final exam and no labwork and all the lectures/workshops are done on the web.

 

NOTE

All lectures have been recorded using iLectures and available from the CBMS123 web site ( http://www.cbms.mq.edu.au/~cbms123/lectures/index.html ) or on CD available from Rodiah at MDIS.

Quote of the (last) century - plaque attached to a canon placed on campus as a memorial

Pause, passerby and hang your head in shame

This Engine of Destruction, Torture and Death Symbolizes:

The Prostitution of the Inventor

The Avarice of the Manufacturer

The Blood-guilt of the statesman

The Savagery of the Soldier

The Perverted Patriotism of the Citizen

The Debasement of the Human Race
