Many thanks to NetGalley for the ARC of this! The tale of Peter Higgs. This was one of my favorite books on science and biography that I have read. It is likely not for the average reader or someone that steers away from technical books. I thoroughly enjoyed this and will absolutely be reading this author again. Very well written. Compelling. Highly recommended for the science inclined. For the willing, I believe this is worth the effort. Some readers will struggle with the subject.

Extensively researched book about the life of Peter Higgs. This book traces his life from birth until the author's interviews with him in 2015. Throughout the book we see his life, his philosophies, and the evolution of the theories of science itself.

I recommend this to someone who likes biographies but also for those deeply interested in all kinds of physics or the sciences. It is a great STEM resource. It is a medium-to-heavy read.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an ARC of this book.
