Anders Lennartson received his Ph.D. from the University of Gothenburg (Sweden) in 2009 with a thesis concerning the synthesis of optically active compounds from achiral starting materials (absolute asymmetric synthesis). This included the first optical resolution of five- and seven-coordinate metal complexes. After a stay at the University of Southern Denmark working on bioinorganic chemistry and spin crossover and at Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden) working with chemical storage of solar energy, he returned to the University of Gothenburg as a technician. Anders has published 60 scientific papers and number of popular science papers, mainly on historic subjects. He has written three books in Swedish, including the first modern biography of Carl Wilhelm Scheele, published in 2015. The Chemical Works of Carl Wilhelm Scheele, an analysis of all Scheele's publications, was published by Springer in 2017.

“This seems to be one of the first books … which ‘aims to provide volumes that advance the historical knowledge of chemistry and its practice, while also remaining accessible to both scientists and formal historians of science. Volumes should thus be of broad interest to the greater chemical community, while still retaining a high level of historical scholarship’ … . this Plutarchian biography generally meets these criteria and one cannot really ask for more.” (Frank A.
