Questions of the fundamental nature of matter continue to inspire
and engage our imagination. However, the exciting new concepts of
strings, supersymmetry and exotic matter build on ideas that are
well known to physicists but mysterious and puzzling to people
outside of these research fields. Covering key conceptual
developments from the last century, this book provides a background
to the bold ideas and challenges faced by physicists today. Quantum
theory and the Standard Model of particles are explained with
minimal mathematics, and advanced topics, such as gauge theory and
quantum field theory, are put into context. With concise, lucid
explanations, this book is an essential guide to the world of
particle physics.
