Turns out Quark isn't the sound a posh duck makes.

This history of discovery was interesting, but the physics was so simplified that it was too abstract, although I'll admit that a more rigorous approach would have probably drowned me in mathematics I had never heard of before.

Read it as smoothly as a novel. Learned a lot. Harald Fritzsch has fantastic explanation skills that make particle physics seem easy. A bit outdated, as it is three decades old.

[David Wilson · Rating 5 out of 5]

Good intro to quarks at the easiest conceptual level. NO MATH (a good or bad thing depending on one's point of view..)

[Jose Moa · Rating 4 out of 5]

A good very readable exposition of the estándar model and strong interaction
