The Big Bang, the birth of the universe, was a singular event. All of the matter of the universe was concentrated at a single point, with temperatures so high that even the familiar protons and neutrons of atoms did not yet exist, but rather were replaced by a swirling maelstrom of energy, matter and antimatter. Exotic quarks and leptons flickered briefly into existence, before merging back into the energy sea.… (més)

    Quarks Leptons and the Big Bang de Jonathan Allday (katieinseattle)
    katieinseattle: These two books deal with essentially the same material, Allday's from a theoretical/mathematical perspective and Lincoln's from an experimental perspective, both intelligible to a layman. They complement each other well.

For the non scientist, a helpful and challenging book on particle physics. A historical survey of early and classic physics leads into the inspiring discovery of the world of sub atomic particles - the fundamental stuff. The meat of the book is the two chapters that discuss quarks and leptons and the four fundamental forces. Don Lincoln presents this difficult material in an organized manner than enables the non scientist to make sense of the wild and counter intuitive world of the bosons and fermions and other very small things.

Don Lincoln introduces and conveys his contagious admiration for the discoveries, the questions, and the people that have advanced our knowledge. The reader comes away with a true appreciation of the difficulty and the significance. But most importantly the reader comes away with an insight and an understanding.

Additional chapters introduce the Higgs field and particle, describe the purpose and work of particle accelerators, and point to present and future challenges. The final chapter discusses the very interesting field of cosmology.

A very good introduction to an exciting, but difficult, science. ( )

Simple but good, often jaunty, drawn-out account of particle physics.
