With characteristic clarity and wit, Asimov guides the reader through the labyrinthine world of subatomic physics, tracing the neutrino from its theoretical conception by Wolfgang Pauli in the 1930s to its eventual experimental detection, unpacking the profound implications this tiny, near-massless particle holds for our understanding of the universe.\n\nAsimov, one of the twentieth century's most gifted science communicators, transforms what could be an impenetrably technical subject into a compelling and accessible narrative, illustrating the interplay between bold theoretical thinking and painstaking experimental proof. His prose carries both the excitement of discovery and the rigour of a trained scientist, making The Neutrino an enduring testament to the power of human curiosity. Published by Dennis Dobson of London as part of Asimov's celebrated series of non-fiction works, this volume stands alongside Life and Energy and The Universe as essential reading for anyone who has ever gazed at the night sky and wondered what, beneath it all, the universe is truly made of.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203180667099,"sku":"2026100009466-SECONDHAND","price":100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/2f454caf-6424-480f-9401-d337b88b733b.png?v=1788145023","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009466-secondhand-the-neutrino-ghost-particle-of-the-atom","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
