                  Book Description

                  The Nobel Prizewinning physicist Leon Lederman guides readers on an enormously accessible tour of the history of particle physics, from the Greeks" earliest scientific observations through Einstein and beyond. He takes us on the quest for the Higgs boson, nicknamed the God particle, which will help unlock the last secrets of the subatomic universe. In the new preface for this edition, Lederman explains some of the up-to-theminute advances in supercollider research that are bringing answers ever closer.

                  5 out of 5 stars Great!!.......2007-09-05

                  A great, well written and very funny book!! :-D

                  You'll learn a lot of Particle Physics amusing yourself!! ;-)

                  4 out of 5 stars Engaging text and physicist.......2007-08-12

                  Galileo, Newton, Faraday, Rutherford, and Einstein are just a few of the heroes in Lederman's tale, each one a brilliant detective looking for clues behind the veil of matter.
                  Extraordinarily accessible, filled with razor-sharp wit and startling storytelling power, The God Particle is a celebration of human curiosity, inviting you to take part in an adventure, finding the solution to a puzzle that will be the greatest discovery of all time.
                  What Stephen Hawking did for cosmology, Leon Lederman does for particle physics.

                  5 out of 5 stars brilliant book, but needs updating.......2006-12-30


                  This is a brilliant book. The book speaks for itself. My words can't do it justice. I think everyone should read this book.

                  The only thing that bothers me about it is that it needs updating. The author of this new edition did explain in the forward that it was written over a decade ago, in anticipation of the SSC, whose funding got cut. However, that is not enough. If the author or publisher did not want to update the text of the book itself, they should have provided footnotes throughout. For example, when it mentions that the top quark has not been discovered, that deserves a comment about its discovery, if not an appendix. It wouldn't take that much effort to just add footnotes, and it would help make the book more timeless.

                  Also, the paper in this edition could be better. The quality is not quite as bad as "mass market paperback", but almost.

                  Regardless of my few negative comments, this is one of the all-time best scientific books written for a popular audience.

                  4 out of 5 stars Educational and Fun.......2006-07-24

                  This was a very enjoyable read. Lederman's love of science - both its history and its current practice - comes through on every page. It is a book that can be enjoyed by anyone with curiosity about the universe and what goes on at the smallest scales within it. The only drawback that keeps me from giving it 5 stars is that it is a bit dated now and does not account for some of the latest theories, but it's still well worth reading in spite of that.

                  2 out of 5 stars Book's title is misleading..........2005-10-12

                  Should have been titled: "The God Particle - Pg. 366-376" The book speaks very little about the Higgs boson for which it is named after. Instead Lederman focusses on the idea of the unsplittable 'a-tom'. Lederman goes through 'a-tom' history from the early Greek philosophers to the year 1993.

                  Here are some quick thoughts on the book itself:
                  (1) As to be expected, the book is a tad bit outdated. Since 1993 the top quark has been found and the SSC has been cancelled (which is unfortunate since he had so much hope for it throughout the book, oops!).
                  (2) The book has its humor but I would not call it side-splitting. I found it somewhat irritating that he often jumped to a side-story just to tell a joke.
                  (3) An earlier reviewer said it contained "dense math" though the only few equations that are in the book are to show what people put on t-shirts or to show that the symbol 'M' is different from 'm' which he explains anyway. Any particle decay 'equations' are to be taken as givens for the reader.
                  (4) The history is decent.

                  The book was worth reading, though I am not sure who it was written for. On one hand, people looking for information on the Higgs would not wish to read the majority of this book's content. On the other hand, people looking for history on the idea of an 'a-tom' would not pick a book called "The God Particle".

                    Book Description

                    This title is the first comprehensive book on sampling and modern sample preparation techniques and has several main objectives: to facilitate recognition of sample preparation as both an integral part of the analytical process; to present a fundamental basis and unified theoretical approach for the professional development of sample preparation; to emphasize new developments in sample preparation technology; and to highlight the future impact of sample preparation on new directions in analytical science, particularly automation, miniaturization and field implementation.

                    Until recently, there has been relatively little scientific interest in sampling and sample preparation, however this situation is presently changing as sampling and sample preparation become integral parts of the analytical process with their own unique challenges and research opportunities.

                    Sampling and Sample Preparation for Field and Laboratory is an essential resource for all analytical chemists, and in particular those involved in method development. Not only does it cover the fundamental aspects of extraction, it also covers applications in various matrices and includes sampling strategies and equipment and how these can be integrated into the analytical process for maximum efficiency.

                                Book Description

                                If you have ever speculated about the deep meaning of existence, or the true nature of the universe, the Discovery of Nothing is sure to be a real treat. Recommended for those who are familiar with general physics, and are interested in the philosophy of science. Here is a philosophy which shows that the base and common ground for what we do is the same for all of nature. Lyle Jacobson is impressed with the occurrence of opposite aspects of many things he encounters. He relates male and female, positive and negative charge, + and - numbers, and the occurrence of the binary system used in computers, to the binary numbers 0 and 1. He also examines modern scientific phenomena such as matter and anti-matter, quantum theory, and the order of the cosmos. Such concepts also occurred to ancient thinkers of the orient. From them emerged the Chinese concept of Yin and Yang, hot and cold human temperaments, and health and illness. In the Discovery of Nothing, Lyle Jacobson realizes that he has modernized the Yin and Yang concept to include modern science. If you are aware of Zeno's paradoxes, you will never see them resolved in a more convincing manner. Mr. Jacobson develops a view of motion from the binary nature of the universe. His view is that motion takes place between "emission" and "absorption" rather than being something observed while a mass traverses a series of points over time. This argument also strongly supports Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle of quantum mechanics which simply stated that when we measure the position of the particle, we cannot measure the measure the momentum, and vice versa. In quantum mechanics, physicists generally believe that when the position is measured, there is a momentum to the particle, only that nature prevents us from measuring it. Jacobson says, we cannot measure it because position and momentum cannot occur simultaneously. The resolution of these paradoxes stem from Jacobson's view of the universe as being binary at it's foundation, and is no mean feat.

                                Bordering its trading partner, Canada, on the north, Minnesota is the 12th-largest state in the USA. It’s no wonder that Minnesota, nicknamed Land of 10,000 Lakes, leads the nation in per capita sales of fishing licenses, with 15,000 streams and over 5,400 fishable lakes. Uncle John is rightly enamored of a state with the world’s only two-story outhouse, and while all states have official flowers and birds, Minnesota has a state beverage (milk) and muffin (blueberry). What other state has spawned such disparate personalities as J. Paul Getty, Bob Dylan, and Jesse Ventura? Its people are just one interesting facet of a state where travelers can find such fascinating curiosities as the SPAM Museum or the Museum of Questionable Medical Devices. Over 300 pages of interesting facts and amusing trivia provide armchair travelers with a glimpse into Minnesota’s people, places, and stunning natural wonders.

                                I gave it to a friend for Christmas because she is from Minnesota. She really enjoyed all the trivia about her home state.

                                5 out of 5 stars Take the plunge!.......2006-07-28

                                Awesome!!! Don't visit the loo without it! Bathroom jokes aside, it's overflowing with great facts and humor and the writing is superb (lots of great, undiscovered talent here). If you haven't visited Minnesota yet, you will want to after reading these excellent essays. And if you are a Minnesotan, you will chuckle and nod your head and maybe even say "wow, I didn't know that" about a tidbit or two.

                                5 out of 5 stars Terrific.......2006-07-28

                                Uff Da! You betcha this book is fun, interesting and educational!
                                Worthy of reading beyond the bathroom, Plunges into Minnesota provides an eclectic and entertaining tour of the North Star State. Great for native Minnesotans, transplanted Minnesotans and those who just want to know more about life in the Frozen (and not so frozen)land of 10,000 lakes.

                                Worth every penny!
                                I really enjoyed reading about important events and people in Minnesota history.
                                Very well written and not boring facts one after another.
                                Lots of variety with even a crossword puzzle.
                                I especially enjoyed the history of the large department store Daytons.
