supports: If This Is a Man (first published in 1947 in Italian as "Se questo è un uomo" ; United States title: Survival in Auschwitz) is a work by the Italian Jewish writer Primo Levi. It describes his arrest as a member of the Italian anti-fascist resistance during the Second World War, and his incarceration in the Auschwitz concentration camp (Monowitz) from February 1944 until the camp was liberated on January 27, 1945. A novel is a long narrative, normally in prose, which describes fictional characters and events, usually in the form of a sequential story. Primo Michele Levi (31 July 1919  11 April 1987) was an Italian Jewish chemist, writer, and Holocaust survivor. He was the author of several books, novels, collections of short stories, essays, and poems. His best-known works include "If This Is a Man" (1947) (U.S.: "Survival in Auschwitz"), his account of the year he spent as a prisoner in the Auschwitz concentration camp in Nazi-occupied Poland; and his unique work, "The Periodic Table" (1975), linked to qualities of the elements, which the Royal Institution of Great Britain named the best science book ever written. A chemist (from Greek chm (ía) alchemy + -ist; replacing chymist from Medieval Latin alchimista) is a scientist trained in the study of chemistry. Chemists study the composition of matter and its properties. Chemists carefully describe the properties they study in terms of quantities, with detail on the level of molecules and their component atoms. Chemists carefully measure substance proportions, reaction rates, and other chemical properties. The word 'chemist' is also used to address Pharmacists in Commonwealth English. On 19 October 2006, the Royal Institution of Great Britain named "The Periodic Table", by Primo Levi, the best science book ever. After taking nominations from many scientists in various disciplines, authors, and other notable people (such as the Archbishop of Canterbury), the Royal Institution compiled a shortlist of books for consideration. This shortlist was presented to the public at an event held at Imperial College and the audience voted to determine which book was "the best." The Wrench , published in the US under the title of The Monkey 's Wrench , was one of Primo Levi 's collections of stories ( another being The Periodic Table ) . First published as La Chiave a Stella by Einaudi in 1978 , the book was written after Levi had retired from SIVA . It takes the form of an interview by a chemist of a rigger . They are both working in a remote work camp where there is little to do in the evenings except tell stories . The scene is loosely based upon Togliattigrad , the Fiat camp set up in Russia to build a car factory . The rigger is Libertino Faussone and the chemist is clearly autobiographical . The Royal Institution of Great Britain (often abbreviated as the Royal Institution or Ri) is an organisation devoted to scientific education and research, based in London. Auschwitz concentration camp was a network of German Nazi concentration camps and extermination camps built and operated by the Third Reich in Polish areas annexed by Nazi Germany during World War II. It consisted of Auschwitz I (the original camp), Auschwitz IIBirkenau (a combination concentration/extermination camp), Auschwitz IIIMonowitz (a labor camp to staff an IG Farben factory), and 45 satellite camps.
