<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"The epic story of the quest to uncover a fully unified theory of physics, revised to reflect the possible discovery of the Higgs Boson"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>In Supersymmetry and Beyond, renowned physicist Gordon Kane tells the epic story of the quest to uncover a fully unifi ed theory of physics. He introduces the theory of supersymmetry, which implies that each of the fundamental particles has a "superpartner" that can be detected at energies and intensities only now being achieved in the giant accelerators. If the theory is correct, these superpartners will also help solve many of the puzzles of modern physics-such as the existence of the Higgs boson-as well as one of the biggest mysteries in cosmology: the notorious "dark matter" of the universe.</p><p>An absorbing narrative of science in the making, Supersymmetry and Beyond, now fully updated to refl ect recent discoveries at the Large Hadron Collider, offers a glimpse of the cutting edge in one of the most exciting scientifi c ventures of our times.</p><p><br></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Brian Greene, professor of physics and mathematics, Columbia University, and author of "The Elegant Universe"<BR> "Supersymmetry and Beyond" is the fascinating account of the search for nature s fundamental building blocks, told by a modern day pioneer. The stakes are high and the story dramatic: if experiments should establish that nature is supersymmetric, we would have finally glimpsed the quantum nature of space and time. <BR>David Gross, Nobel Laureate in Physics, and Frederick W. Gluck Chair, Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of California, Santa Barbara<BR> A great introduction to the frontiers of modern physics, from the discovery of the Higgs to the prospects for supersymmetry and beyond.
