Synopsis:

Have you ever mixed a skincare serum or measured ingredients for a science project and wondered if you were doing real chemistry?

You are.

Everyday Lab Math is the comic-style, no-gatekeeping guide to the real math behind real science. Whether working in a lab, mixing buffers at your bench, or blending a serum at your kitchen counter, this book will help you understand, calculate, and create confidently.

Written by molecular geneticist and science educator Dr. Aidyl Gonzalez-Serricchio, this visual and accessible book makes intimidating concepts like molarity and pH feel clear, doable, and even fun.

Inside, you'll master the math behind:

• Molarity, dilutions, and molality
• Acids, bases, and buffer prep
• Percent solutions and osmolarity
• Normality and equivalent weight

Perfect for:

• STEM students and teachers
• DIY skincare formulators and makers
• Citizen scientists and science communicators
• Anyone who thought math wasn't for them

Everyday Lab Math isn't a textbook; it's your hands-on, illustrated guide to science that you can actually use. With fun visuals, practical tips, and nerdy flair, this book makes chemistry human, relevant, and yours.
