About this title

Synopsis

Beyond our illusion of solid surface is a strange reality of miniscule cells; of antimatter, quarks, and leptons; an invisible world of forces yet to be fully understood by mankind. A collaboration among some of the world's foremost physicists and authors of speculative fiction journeys into a world inhabited by microorganisms, miniscule cells, and subatomic particles, in a study of current knowledge and vision of microscopic world.
