I'll openly admit I never really understood (not really) the periodic table until Theodore's books. Now, the re-grouping of the elements into their columns and discussion of the commonalities of each group provides more insight to the overall "pattern of behavior" of the periodicity of the elements. This book provides a higher level description of the groups (columns) of the periodic table, while the previous book marches through the table, one element at a time. As for the samples: They are great! It may seem "gimmicky" to adults, but my children were fascinated to see and touch actual element samples - especially the gold leaf which was carefully inspected, then returned to its protective paper and cardboard envelope. Visual and tactile! Yet *another* dimension of interest that makes the elements come alive. And the easy-breezy tone makes it such a pleasure to read. These additions really do make the book feel like a "vault". The "historical documents" are a little bit klunky and "blah" though - they could have made them "pop-up" or "fold out" style rather than envelopes with sheets of paper in them. If you had to choose only one of the two books, the original "Visual Exploration" is probably the better choice. Once you have that, though, this book is an excellent "and that's not all!" addition to your science library. I am glad we have both. THANK you Theodore Gray for making science come alive! Review: Can't put this book down..... - I have always been fascinated by the elegance of the elements and the way they are arranged in the periodic table, but as a lay-person, struggled to understand them. Theodore Gary's wonderfully colourful book will explain in simple terms, the wonderful properties of each element, with their history, characteristics and uses. You will find yourself saying "Wow, I always wondered about that". This book is an excellent addition to your library - especially for young scientists, or eccentrics like me whose main aim in life is to actually construct a "periodic coffee table" with all the elements displayed on the table under glass. (Mission impossible, but it's fun trying). You will find it a great reference book too! Would highly recommend. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,827,400 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,245 in General Chemistry | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 70 Reviews | ## Images ![Theodore Gray's Elements Vault: Treasures of the Periodic Table with Removable Archival Documents and Real Element Samples - Including Pure Gold! - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ahiyijFYL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It gets even better! *by A***G on December 14, 2011* This book is an excellent companion to "The Elements: A Visual Exploration of Every Known Atom in the Universe".

There are some other samples, like pictures that you can handle to show and tell about the uses of elements in the past and present. My little one, (2 and half at this writing) wants to look at the book a few times a month. She is wowed by what this book and related Theodore Gray books have to offer. Great teaching tool for all ages and anyone interested in building knowledge about the elements. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5275421-theodore-grays-elements-vault-treasures-of-the-periodic-table-removable](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5275421-theodore-grays-elements-vault-treasures-of-the-periodic-table-removable) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-19*
