Response to The Chemistry Behind Black and White Photography

If you really want to go nuts with the physical chemistry and electrochemistry of photography, go to your local university library and see if they have a copy of The Theory of the Photographic Process. It is out of print, but it I've seen it in libraries. It is not a reference for the faint of heart, and a college level chemistry background will be really helpful in understanding a lot of what is in there, but even a shallow perusal of the work is very informative. While you are there, look for a copy of the Encyclopedia of Photography. There is a lot of good information in there too.
