Description: Understanding the Universe: From Quarks to the Cosmos Don Lincoln (hardcover) Written by a particle physicist at Fermilab, this book tells the story of both the physics and the physicists doing the experiments that shed light on the nature of matter. While it predates the discovery of the Higgs, it fills in the background work needed to make that discovery. It is highly detailed while remaining very readable. Appendices include a very necessary explanation of the scientific jargon, particle naming rules and a brief on special relativity and quantum mechanics.
