Since Einstein's time, a "theory of everything" -- one coherent mathematical model that would encompass all the forces and particles of nature -- has become the Holy Grail of physics, and its pursuit has resulted in some of the most extraordinary ideas in the history of science.

This invaluable primer at last enables all of us to understand these ideas. John Gribbin provides a brief, succinct, accessible overview of the hundred-year saga of particle physics, explaining everything from the basics (how subatomic particles work) to the cutting-edge research that has produced dazzling new models of the universe, among them the radical theories of "superstrings" -- the hypothesis that particles are loops of vibrating "string" -- and "supersymmetry."

Love it! 😍
Size: One Size, Color: Brown/Acorn
This purse is perfect for summer or really any time of the year! If you’re looking for a light and beautiful purse, this is the one! I’m not put off by the nylon material at all. I’m a teacher and I have to carry a big work bag in addition to a purse so this is absolutely perfect. There’s enough room to fit my cosmetic bag, iPhone, and a few other things which is all I really need. Or if you just want a purse for a trip this is the perfect thing too.

Nice Purse
Size: One Size, Color: Gold-tone Hardware/Black, Size: One Size, Color: Gold-tone Hardware/Black
I loved this purse so much that I purchased a second one when the first one was worn out. The second one actually is a little longer by about an inch. My only complaint is the second one does not have a zippered pocket inside. But it’s a beautiful purse and great for traveling.

Nice but smaller than expected.
Size: One Size, Color: Brown/Acorn
I would give this purse 5 stars if it wasn't for the small opening in the purse. Not much room inside. Smaller than expected but it's a nice purse overall and if you don't carry much in it.
