Reviews

A high quality substitute for existing texts, well organized, very pedagogical, and written from the modern perspective. College and undergraduate university students will appreciate the obvious advantages of Maggiore's text. * Mikhail Shifman, University of Minnesota *


Author Information

Michele Maggiore obtained his Masters in Physics from the University of Pisa in 1986 and his PhD in Physics from the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa in 1990. Since then, he has undertaken postdocs in Bern and in Minneapolis, before becoming a permanent INFN researcher in Pisa in 1991. He spent a sabbatical at CERN in 2000 and, in 2001, became full professor at the University of Geneva, where he is now based. From 2011 to 2017, he was the Head of the Physics Department at Geneva University.
