Beamtimes and Lifetimes
Sharon Traweek (ed.)
Harvard University Press (1988)
Abstract
Particle physicists constitute a community of sophisticated mythmakers—explicators of the nature of matter who forever alter our views of space and time. But who are these people? What is their world really like? Traweek, a bold observer of culture, opens the door to this unusual domain and offers us a glimpse into the inner sanctum.
