Book Summary
The epic story of how science went "big" and the forgotten genius who started it
all—"entertaining, thoroughly researched…partly a biography, partly an account
of the influence of Ernest Lawrence's great idea, partly a short history of
nuclear physics and the Bomb" (The Wall Street Journal).
Since the 1930s, the scale of scientific endeavor has grown exponentially. The
first particle accelerator could be held in its creator's lap, while its
successor grew to seventeen miles in circumference and cost ten billion dollars.
We have invented the atomic bomb, put man on the moon, and probed the inner
workings of nature at the scale of subatomic particles—all the result
