About this listen
One of the biggest discoveries in physics, the quest for the Higgs boson demonstrates the value of a good theory. In July 2012, a Higgs-like particle was found near the energies scientists predicted. Now, armed with better evidence and better questions, the scientific process continues. In this audiobook, we’ve gathered our best reporting to explain that process - the theories, the search, the discovery, and the ongoing questions.

Informative if you are new to the subject.
These lectures are a little dated now, but very informative, and a good recap to those interested in the subject and its history.

a great chase
a wonderful time line of articles from the magazine from the 90's though to today. facinating the feel the excitment of the unknown before a number of the fundemental particals had been discovered experimently. right through to the disappointment of nothing beyond higgs.
I seen a few bad reviews, these people clearly didn't realise the structure of the piece. the individual articles had little overlap and were all very interesting in their own way.
very enjoyable and informative collection

Out of date nonsense
Why would a journal who claim to be at the cutting edge of science publish a set of essays which are totally out of date?
Also, if the narrator is unable to pronounce basic English words then he has no place narrating

And the target audience for his book was?
Persevered up to the third chapter under the delusion I understood what was being explained. Nope! The most.I could claim is I now have a catalogue of cool quantum physics phrases to confuse and bore people to death with in bars.
