By probing deeper and deeper into the innermost recesses of the atom, physicists have been able to obtain not only a better understanding of the vast cosmos but indeed of the origin of the cosmos itself. This book is about the greatest adventure in human history—mans attempt to reconstruct Creation by a combination of the most daring flights of imagination and mind-boggling experiments. It is, in short, the study of high-energy physics which may aptly be called the second Creation, or mans attempt to reconstruct Creation.
