Beyond the God Particle

Even after all these books, scientists are still talking about the Higgs Boson, including the Nobel Laureate Leon Lederman and Christophere Hill. They raise the dust on the classic arguments once again in their new book, Beyond the God Particle. And they site new vistas for the delight of readers who are still fascinated with every aspect of this intriguing discussion. Finally, the authors contend, the long-sought God Particle appears to have been captured and poetically endorsed in this timely documentary. According to the authors, the discovery is not the end of the discussion, however. In fact, it opens Pandora’s Box and places us in an even deeper mystery than the Particle Collider created.

While the writers dig deep beneath the many unanswered questions that arose since experiments began several years ago, the nature of the most far-reaching concerns are only partially revealed. Even more concerns lie in its wake, forcing us to open a new chapter on the God Particle. If the reader seeks mental adventure, he or she will not be disappointed. Lederman still talks “All About Mass,” and “Mass Under the Microscope.” In fact, the authors toy with such astounding ideas as Project X and consider what’s beyond the Higgs Boson.

The book is an intellectual aphrodisiac and animates the reader in a way a brilliant whodunnit does, motivating and driving our interest.
