A Bit About Me

I am an author and a Visiting Scholar at UC, Berkeley in The Office for History of Science and Technology. I am working on my first book, a cultural history of particle physics in the 20th century, to be titled The Invisible World. The book will published in the US by Farrar, Straus & Giroux, in the UK by The Bodley Head, and in a dozen or so other countries and languages around the world.
