"The conceptual changes brought by modern physics are important, radical and fascinating,
yet they are only vaguely understood by people working outside the field. Exploring
the four pillars of modern physics - relativity, quantum mechanics, elementary particles
and cosmology - this clear and lively account will interest anyone who has wondered
what Einstein, Bohr, Schrödinger and Heisenberg were really talking about. The book
discusses quarks and leptons, antiparticles and Feynman diagrams, curved space-time,
the Big Bang and the expanding Universe. Suitable for undergraduate students in non-science
as well as science subjects, it uses problems and worked examples to help readers
develop an understanding of what recent advances in physics actually mean"
