This book is the product of many years of teaching a course at Vassar College on subatomic physics for non-science majors. As a final exercise in the course, the students were required to write a short story or poem with subatomic particles as the main characters. I have collected the very best of them in this book. By the time you read the whole book you should be familiar with common particle world events like annihilation, pair production and decay, but a glossary of terms and suggestions for further reading are included just in case.This book is light reading; meant to entertain!For science lovers, science teachers, physics teachers and particle physics people.Schwarz, Cindy is the author of 'Tales from the Subatomic Zoo' with ISBN 9780972262309 and ISBN 097226230X.
