Higgs & Bosons & Fermions, …Oh, My! SUBATOMIC JOURNEY (Everyone's Guide Series Book 10)

This book explores the Micro-World of subatomic particles and forces, including the recently discovered Higgs boson.

The pursuit of natureâ€™s smallest parts is one of mankindâ€™s oldest quests, beginning at least 26 centuries ago. But, just in our lifetimes it seems weâ€™ve finally â€œhit bottom.â€ Each step deeper into the Micro-World has revealed surprises, and expanded our understanding of nature on all size scales. At the bottom, we see a remarkable unity â€” nature is the same everywhere. Each galaxy could have been made of different types of matter, just as Earthâ€™s continents have different flora and fauna. Instead, everything everywhere in the universe is made of just the same few elementary parts.

Einstein said: â€œThe most incomprehensible thing about the universe is that it is comprehensible.â€ Now we know why. It is the simplicity of its smallest parts that allows us to comprehend the bewildering diversity and scope of our universe.
