A brilliant populariser and award-winning writer John Gribbin tells the whole storyof the micro-world, and the people who made the discoveries. An essential complement to Gribbin's Companion to the Cosmos, it is about the inner structure of everything- a quest which, like the quest for the understanding of the Universe at large goes back to the ancient Greeks and touches on all of scientific and philosophic thought since then.
