This book introduces the world of antimatter without using technical language or equations. The author shows how the quest for symmetry in physics slowly revealed the properties of antimatter. When large particle accelerators came on line, the antimatter debris of collisions provided new clues on its properties. This is a fast-paced and lucid account of how science fiction became fact.

The creation of CERN, the European particle accelerator laboratory which straddles the Swiss-French border near Geneva, has been one the triumphs of modern European science and co-operation, however its history has not been without controversy. This text explains the history and politics which have surrounded CERN from its original inception through to its current research programmes.
