The big and the small : the story of elementary particles : Volume I,. Journey into the microcosm G Venkataraman - Hyderabad, India : Universities Press : Distributed by Orient Longman Limited, 2001. - viii, 276 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm. - Journey into the microcosm Volume I Vignettes in physics. .
By probing deeper and deeper into the innermost recesses of the atom, physicists have been able to obtain not only a better understanding of the vast cosmos but indeed of the origin of the cosmos itself. This book is about the greatest adventure in human history—man’s attempt to reconstruct Creation by a combination of the most daring flights of imagination and mind-boggling experiments. It is, in short, the study of high-energy physics which may aptly be called the second Creation, or man’s attempt to reconstruct Creation. Reconstructing Creation - An Introduction Then and Now A Pot-Pourri of Some Basic Facts From the Thirties to the Sixties A Weak Story Fun with Mirrors Big Money for Small Particles The Eight-fold Way Adding Charm to Quarks Electrifying the Weak Splicing Flavour with Colour What Next ?
