The Wizard of Quarks: A Fantasy of Particle Physics (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780387950716)

The author's first Copernicus book, Alice in Quantumland, continues to sell through nearly three years since its appearance. This new title, based on the universal popularity of the story and film, The Wizard of Oz, takes the reader on a tour through the imaginative landscape, where the story of twentieth century physics is narrated in an accessible and enjoyable manner, which are the hallmarks of Gilmore's writing and original illustrations.
