This book is intended to give a clear and concise introductory account of the basic ideas underlying nuclear and elementary particle physics. The attempt throughout is to convey a sound physical understanding of the structures and processes encountered. It assumes some knowledge of elementary quantum mechanics, particularly the treatment of angular momentum, and the rudiments of special relativity. In addition to 'standard' calculations based on this knowledge, frequent use is made of 'order-of-magnitude' and 'dimensional' arguments. In this way it has been possible to give some discussion of quite advanced topics and recent developments. Although reference is made from time to time to the apparatus of nuclear and particle physics no technical detail is given. My basic hope is that students using this book will acquire a sound understand ing of what nuclear and particle physics is about and will wish to learn more. I am indebted to Dr David Bailin and various (nameless) referees for penetrating and helpful comments on parts of the text.

This book aims to provides a clear, concise introduction to both nuclear and particle physics. Assuming no prior knowledge of the area, Professor Blin-Stoyle conveys a sound physical understanding of the structures and processes encountered in nuclear and particle physics, making use of order-of-magnitude and dimensional arguments where necessary. Following a brief review of the evolution of the subject the author introduces the models of nuclear structure and nuclear reactions and leads the reader through to advanced topics including electroweak unification. Illustrated throughout and including problem sets and answers, this text covers an essential part of any undergraduate physics course. This book should be of interest to second and third year undergraduate physics students.
