Viac o knihe

Will the Large Hadron Collider at CERN yield the long-awaited discovery of the Higgs boson, the last experimentally unconfirmed particle of the Standard Model, whose prediction is one of the greatest challenges of 20th-century theoretical physics? Will hidden dimensions of spacetime, as proposed by string theory, be found? Will we understand the nature of the mysterious dark matter that constitutes over 90% of the universe's mass? This book, authored by one of the best contemporary science communicators, guides us step by step through the adventure of an experiment that promises to satisfy the curiosity of anyone who agrees with Albert Einstein's sentiment: “I want to know God's thoughts – the rest are details.”

Kdyby autor počkal dva roky (originál je z r. 2010), mohl napsat i o objevu Higgsova bosonu. Ale to asi nemohl tušit :)
