Review # 1 was written on 2008-03-03 00:00:00 Avon Avell When I was in high school in the 1960s, I loved a book called Inside the Nucleus, which is now long out of print and which would be quite outdated in any case. However, it gave a very clear presentation of subatomic particles. The New Cosmic Onion is the closest approximation that I have yet found on this subject to the overall clarity of presentation of Inside the Nucleus. I look forward to reading it!

Review # 2 was written on 2015-05-13 00:00:00 Jonathan Lymer Good overview and introduction into the topic of quantum particles. It was not overly complex and helped the reader understand things from multiple angles. That said, the topic is difficult, and towards the back chapters hard to comprehend on a first read. Would benefit from a second reading.
