| Summary: | John Gribbin provides a brief, succinct, accessible overview of the hundred-year saga of particle physics, explaining everything from the basics (how subatomic particles work) to the cutting edge research that has produced dazzling new models of the universe, among them the radical theories of superstrings - the hypothesis that particles are loops of vibrating string - and supersymmetry.
