It became important to me to “There’s no point in explaining it – you Rutherford, the Nelson farmer’s son make sure women’s stories were written don’t understand quantum physics,” one who emerges as warm, savvy and of them haughtily told an interloper. Feynman, a towering figure in 20th-cen- tury physics, gets a glancing mention in Suzanne Sheehy’s refreshing and readable history of modern physics, which tends to celebrate the lives of lesser-known scientists, many of them women. Even those who don’t know their quarks from their gluons will be able to follow her on a journey through an emerging science, particle physics, via 12 experiments from 1895 to 2012. The first of them came about through a mixture of luck and curiosity in a lab presided over by just one man, Wilhelm Röntgen. The last, leading to the discovery of the Higgs boson, required the collabora- tion of 110 countries and “roughly half of the 13,000 particle physicists in the world”, Sheehy writes. Herself an experimental (as opposed to theoretical) physicist, Sheehy fluently captures a century of changing science, as well as its drama. Like the moment a shy, whiskery German nerd – Röntgen – noticed something funny out of the corner of his eye during a cathode ray tube experiment: a screen was glowing on the other side of the lab. What could it be? When the home-made tube was switched off, the light disappeared. When it was switched back on, the light reappeared. 52 LISTENER MAY 14 2022
