Editors Lillian Hoddeson, Laurie Brown, Michael Riordan, and Max Dresden have brought together a distinguished group of elementary particle physicists and historians of science to explore the recent history of particle physics. Based on a conference held at Stanford University, this is the third volume of a series recounting the history of particle physics and offers the most up-to-date account of the rise of the Standard Model, which explains the microstructure of the world in terms of quarks and leptons and their interactions

Major contributors include Murray Gell-Mann, John Heilbron, Leon Lederman, Michael Redhead, Silvan Schweber, and Steven Weinberg. The wide-ranging articles explore the detailed scientific experiments, the institutional settings in which they took place, and the ways in which the many details of the puzzle fit together to account for the Standard Model.
