'Everything you wanted to know about physics but were afraid to ask' Priyamvada Natarajan, author of Mapping the Heavens
__________________________
When leading theoretical physicist Professor Michael Dine was asked where you could find an accessible book that would teach you about the Big Bang, Dark Matter, the Higgs boson and the cutting edge of physics now, he had nothing he could recommend.
So he wrote it himself.
In This Way to the Universe, Dine takes us on a fascinating tour through the history of modern physics - from Newtonian mechanics to quantum, from particle to nuclear physics - delving into the wonders of our universe at its largest, smallest, and within our daily lives. If you are looking for the one book to help you understand physics, written in language anyone can follow, this is it.

Michael Dine is Distinguished Professor of Physics at the Santa Cruz Institute for Particle Physics, University of California. One of the world's leading physicists, he has made important contributions to our understanding of particle physics and string theory, has proposed arguably the leading candidate for the identity of the dark matter, and put forth some of the most promising ideas to explain why our universe consists of something rather than nothing. Dine is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Recipient of the highly prestigious Sakurai Prize, in 2019 he was elected to the National Academy of Sciences, one of the highest honours a scientist can achieve. This is his first trade book.
