But while his path forward seems straight, hers is 'like a gas particle moving around in space'- her research is stagnating, and she's questioning whether she's lost her passion for her work altogether. The demands of her Chinese parents - who have always expected nothing short of excellence - don't help. Eventually, the pressure mounts so high that she must leave everything she thought she knew about her future, and herself, behind. And for the first time she's confronted with a question she won't find the answer to in a textbook- What do I really want? \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOver the next two years, this winningly flawed, disarmingly insightful heroine learns the formulas and equations for a different kind of chemistry - one in which the reactions can't be quantified, measured and analysed; one that can be studied only in the mysterious language of the heart.","brand":"Ships in 4 to 7 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41702592643230,"sku":"UBD-9781925603675","price":22.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/products\/9781925603675.jpg?v=1653390949","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/chemistry","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
