# Made at the Library: The Chemistry of Fear with Jonathan Rees

Watch a conversation with author Jonathan Rees about his recent biography of controversial pure food crusader and influential USDA chemist Harvey Washington Wiley, "The Chemistry of Fear: Harvey Wiley's Fight for Pure Food" (Johns Hopkins University Press, 2021). The book examines Wiley's many - and varied - clashes over food safety, and reveals that his impact on what Americans are often depended more upon fear than upon the quality of his research.
