Using 60 years of research on the still mysterious neutrino as a case study, Solomey (physics, U. of Chicago) walks non-technical readers through the history of particle physics from the discovery of radioactivity to present theoretical speculation about the mass and origin of elementary particles. He emphasizes the synergy of experiment and theory that drives the field. Highly illustrated, mostly in color. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
