Now that sounds awesome !! I love books that teach with such great examples of field ingenuity :) Im going right to amazon to order it. The last book i so enjoyed was Richard Feynmans QED, The Strange Theory of Light and Matter. His humor and quirky little mathematical drawings made the topic easier to understand.

You might like "The God Particle" by Leon M Lederman.  He's pretty funny for an old physicist that has been director of several national labs.

Cool :), While you're at it order Dark Sun by the same author. It discusses the politics and the race to develop thermonuclear weapons. It's especially good as it has great information about the Russians and all the espionage going on.
