The book is aimed to physics amateur and is highly recommended. It's pretty easy to understand and also easy to follow as it includes no mathematical developments. While the early chapters can lose some interest because ot the lower specificity of the text, from chapter 3 where you start the story of the discovery of the positron, interest grows under a big dose of reality that scientific facts incorporate about how events occurred and the good explanation that makes the author in chapters 3 and 4. The story about the investigations of Paul Dirac and the successive or parallel investigations that led to the discovery of antimatter are of great interest to the reader.
Frank Close is today essential in popular science literature. The themes of his books are on the edge of known science and knowledge and open us to potential areas of research in the not too distant future.
The book answers the reader's expectations and if you have some knowledge of physics, the book is even more enjoyable.
