Reviews
Review of the hardback: 'Tian Yu's book is a penetrating treatment of the physics involved, but with many philosophical asides, that he alone can produce effortlessly. I have enjoyed reading it enormously.' Michael Redhead, Professor Emeritus, University of Cambridge, FBA
'Cao's book provides many historical and conceptual insights into the fascinating development of QCD.' Vincent Lam, Philosophy in Review
