Description

This book explains the basics of subatomic particles and their interactions without subjecting the reader to the tedium of punishing mathematics, or formal sets of rules. The emphasis is on concepts rather than facts and figures, on understanding rather than knowing. It deals with atomic, nuclear and elementary particle physics, quantum mechanics and field theory.
