book.veronica berns,28，was working on her ph.d.in chemistry.berns quickly concluded that she would be best able to describe the difficult concepts with illustrations.“theyre not very wellpolished illustrationsthats on purpose，” berns said.in the beginning，it was on the back of an envelope or on a napkin that she doodled(涂鸦) the chemical bonds to better explain to her parents what she was working on in the lab.jody berns，veronicas mother，said their family had a history of doodling and had shared comics for years.veronica berns surprised her family with her comic book atomic size matters at her graduation last year.the book typically shows cartoons of berns wearing various costumes and uses humor as well as simple comparisons to describe simple chemistry.“were just really proud that she can take something so complex and put it into an amusing visual(视觉的) explanation that everyone can enjoy，” jody berns said.veronica berns teacher said berns was the first of his students to construct her knowledge in an artistic way and he acknowledged that it was difficult for scientists to explain what they did with proper context.“if its worth doing，we should be able to explain it，” fredrickson said.fredrickson said he hoped other scientists would learn to find ways to illustrate what they were doing in the lab.berns now lives in chicago as a chemist and also writes a blog in which she uses comics to explain the work of nobel prize winning scientists.berns started a fundraising campaign on the internet to finance printing the books.she said she wanted to raise
