Maxwell’s equations revealed that electricity, magnetism, and light were different facets of a single electromagnetic field. By the end of the 1800s, many physicists believed that the only remaining work was to fill in the decimals—to measure constants more precisely. The “book” seemed nearly complete.

Humanity has always gazed upward. From the first moment a proto-human looked at the stars and wondered, "Why?" to the modern physicist smashing particles at near-light speed, the quest has remained the same: to decode the rulebook of the universe. Physics is the language in which that rulebook is written. The 19th century saw a second volume added
