Introducing Particle Physics: A Graphic Guide (Graphic Guides) Paperback – 5 Sept. 2013

I have always had a fascination for particle physics as I grew up in the 50's. This book brought me up to date with this intriguing subject in a fun and easy manner. Now I need to go into it by reading more details in Scientific America.

An interesting read, good price

I needed a quick intro to particle physics so that I can have a conversation with my grandson who is studying the theoretical side of this fascinating subject. Great book easy to grasp the concept.

An interesting but shallow coverage, consistent with its size and price. There is a good summary of the history of the subject but no satisfactory coverage of the actual physics.

I pre-ordered this book and I recieved it the day it came out (I could even smell the wet ink).Anyway, the book is very informative and makes very complex ideas understandable to lay-persons,even ignorant students of philosophy like myself.

The book is fun and informative, but reading graphic novels on a kindle is just silly, the illustrations are far too small, and if you big them up it's just all too slow. Probably great as an actual book!

Not the easiest of subjects to get to grips with but this book gives an excellent introduction through its graphics, photos etc.

The book covers the ground of the history of particle physics. Slightly disappointing graphics, mainly DWEM’s and very little actual physics.
