Customer Reviews:

thrilling insight into microphysics

This is an excellent book. It is accessible to a general reader with an interest in the "machines" with which some of the most important breakthroughs of modern physics were made. Gallison uses some fascinating metaphors, for instance the idea of a pidgin or trading language allowing communication between researchers in different fields (ie those who count events and those who create images of them).
