Why didn't the matter in our Universe annihilate with antimatter
immediately after its creation? This book presents theoretical
tools necessary to understand this phenomenon. Reflecting the
recent explosion of new results, this second edition has been
substantially expanded. It introduces charge conjugation, parity
and time reversal, before describing the Kobayashi-Maskawa (KM)
theory for CP violation and our understanding of CP violation in
kaon decays. It reveals how the discovery of B mesons has provided
a new laboratory to study CP violation with KM theory predicting
large asymmetries, and discusses how these predictions have been
confirmed since the first edition of this book. This lead to M.
Kobayashi and T. Maskawa receiving the 2008 Nobel Prize for
Physics. Later chapters describe the search for a new theory of
nature's fundamental dynamics. This book is suitable for
researchers in high energy, atomic and nuclear physics and the
history and philosophy of science.
