Beamtimes and Lifetimes: The World of High Energy PhysicistsHarvard University Press, 14.12.1988 г. - 187 страници The unique breed of particle physicists constitutes a community of sophisticated mythmakers—explicators of the nature of matter who forever alter our views of space and time. But who are these people? What is their world really like? Sharon Traweek, a bold and original observer of culture, opens the door to this unusual domain and offers us a glimpse into the inner sanctum. |
