About 100 trillion of them just passed through your body. Not one of them touched you.

Neutrinos are the universe's ghosts: nearly massless, electrically neutral, and so indifferent to matter that a light-year of solid lead would barely slow them down. They stream out of the Sun, the Earth's core, exploding stars, and the Big Bang itself, carrying messages no other particle can deliver. Catching even a handful of them takes cathedrals of water buried beneath mountains and telescopes drilled into Antarctic ice.

Lincoln Quigley tells the complete story of the particle nobody wanted and everybody needed, in clear, vivid language with no equations required.

Inside, you will discover:

- A desperate remedy - how Pauli invented an undetectable particle to save physics, and apologized for it
