Atom Land: A Guided Tour Through the Strange (And Impossibly Small) World of Particle Physics

by Jon Butterworth
RM52.00 MYR
Atom Land: A Guided Tour Through the Strange (And Impossibly Small) World of Particle Physics
Atom Land: A Guided Tour Through the Strange (And Impossibly Small) World of Particle Physics

Subatomic exploration simplifies complex particle physics.

If you're intrigued by the intricacies of the universe at its most fundamental level but feel bogged down by dense scientific jargon, "Atom Land" could be a breath of fresh air. Jon Butterworth takes you on a whimsical yet educational journey through particle physics, turning abstract concepts into graspable landmarks and systems. It's science made accessible—and even adventurous.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Journey into an unseen world—and to the frontiers of human knowledge. Welcome to Atom Land, a subatomic realm governed by the laws of particle physics. Here, electromagnetism is a highway system; the strong force, a railway; the weak force, an airline. With award-winning physicist Jon Butterworth as your guide, you’ll set sail from Port Electron in search of strange new terrain—from the Isle of Quarks to the very edge of Antimatter.
