الكتاب مجموعة مقالات واوراق علمية لبعض العلماء وكانت ذات قيمة عالية انذاك.. لكن في وقتنا الحالي فهي عبارة عن مسلمات اعتيادية.

[Ann Keller · Rating 5 out of 5]

From quarks and dark matter to the LEP synchrotron, radiation and neutrinos, this is an excellent collection of some of the highlights of our search to understand the cosmos. This is a fine historical perspective beginning with Greek philosophy, early interpretations of the speed of light and electromagnetism and moving on through sub-atomic particles, proton decay, supercolliders and the Big Bang Theory.

The authors also delve into the possible sources of cosmic rays, black holes, brown dwarves and how the remnants of stars often spawn new stars and planets. Great reference book for home, school or library.
