=Periodic Table Semiotics=

This site is for semiotics discussion and set up by John Oversby (University of Reading) and Liu Yu (National University of Singapore). Sciences are 'littered' with signs and symbols, such as force arrows in physics, arrows and element symbols in chemistry, and DNA caricatures in biology. Some meanings are intended by the scientists and some are accidental, or even misleading. In this site we are focusing on the Periodic Table initially, to ensure a chewable problem, but we may expand the ideas investigated as it develops. John & Liu
