The Standard Model, the Unsung Triumph of Modern Physics.

For fans of Brian Greene and Stephen Hawking, a guide to the most important theory in modern physics, in a tour de force of science writing.

There are two scientific theories that, taken together, explain the entire universe. The first, which describes the force of gravity, is widely known: Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. But the theory that explains everything else - the Standard Model of Elementary Particles - is virtually unknown among the general public.

In 'The Theory Of Almost Everything', Robert Oerter shows how what were once thought to be separate forces of nature were combined into a single theory by some of the most brilliant minds of the twentieth century. Rich with accessible analogies and lucid prose, 'The Theory Of Almost Everything' celebrates a heretofore unsung achievement in human knowledge - and reveals the sublime structure that underlies the world as we know it.
