“一个人对香水的热情促使他探索最引人入胜的科学之谜之一:究竟是什么让一种分子闻起来像大蒜,而另一种闻起来像玫瑰?在这部机智幽默、引人入胜且极具创意的著作中,作者 Luca Turin 探讨了关于嗅觉的两种相互竞争的理论。气味是由 molecular shape 决定的,还是由 molecular vibrations 决定的?Turin 以生动详尽的笔触描述了科学原理、证据以及从有机化学萌芽到当今屡有争议的辩论,并向前辈科学家致敬。凭借其独特的通俗易懂与……”

…化学键强度相同,但在化学结构上可能完全不同。这就是为什么人工合成气味总是像开盲盒一样时灵时不灵。这一切背后的科学和探索历程真的很迷人,我推荐都灵(Turin)写的《气味的秘密》(The Secret of Scent):http://www.amazon.com/Secret-Scent-Adventures-Perfume-Scienc...
…same bond strength, but can be completely different chemically. This is why creating artificial scents is so hit or miss. The science and discovery of all this is really fascinating, I recommend The Secret of Scent by Turin: http://www.amazon.com/Secret-Scent-Adventures-Perfume-Scienc...
我多年前读过卢卡·都灵(Luca Turin)的书《气味的秘密》(The Secret of Scent),确实感觉引人入胜。亚马逊上的评价似乎褒贬不一。
I read Luca Turin's book, "The Secret of Scent", years ago, and it certainly seemed engaging. Reviews on Amazon seem to be mixed.
如果我没记错的话,卢卡·都灵的《气味的秘密》(The Secret of Scent)[0] 深入探讨了一项研究,表明可能存在量子效应,可以解释分子的形状/手性是如何影响气味的。[0] https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Scent-Adventures-Perfume-Scien...…
"The Secret of Scent" by Luca Turin [0] if I remember correctly goes into research that indicates that there may be quantum effects that explain how shape/chirality of molecules affect smell. [0] https://www.amazon.com/Secret-Scent-Adventures-Perfume-Scien...…
