Reviews
"I know of know of no other book than the present volume by Wouter Schmitz that presents all these topics in one connected story, using a bare minimum of mathematical notation and certainly no calculus. ... The non-specialist who perseveres will be rewarded with a surprisingly complete overview of particle physics ... . The author is to be applauded for his ambitious goals in writing this book, and in successfully providing relatively informal accounts of a remarkable amount of material." (Peter J. Bussey, Contemporary Physics, September 23, 2019) "This book offers a world of insight into the building blocks of our universe and the forces which govern them. ... Overall a very useful introductory book for particle physicists." (T. C. Mohan, zbMATH 1422.81007, 2019), "This book offers a world of insight into the building blocks of our universe and the forces which govern them. ... Overall a very useful introductory book for particle physicists." (T. C. Mohan, zbMATH 1422.81007, 2019)

Synopsis
How can fundamental particles exist as waves in the vacuum? How can such waves have particle properties such as inertia? What is behind the notion of "virtual" particles? Why and how do particles exert forces on one another? Not least: What are forces anyway? These are some of the central questions that have intriguing answers in Quantum Field Theory and the Standard Model of Particle Physics. Unfortunately, these theories are highly mathematical, so that most people - even many scientists - are not able to fully grasp their meaning. This book unravels these theories in a conceptual manner, using more than 180 figures and extensive explanations and will provide the nonspecialist with great insights that are not to be found in the popular science literature.

    AAAA++++ SELLER!!!! Book looks new. I've purchased from this seller before and they are awesome. Book was in better than described condition and the price was the best I could find anywhere. Shipping was very fast and book was nicely wrapped in a mylar envelope. My very highest recommendation for Half-Price-Books-Inc! I'll absolutely be buying from them again soon. Thank you-
