Dirac's Dream: The Quest For The Magnetic Monopole

Dirac's Dream tells the story of the quest for the magnetic monopole, the long lost brother of the electron, in Maxwell's four famous equations. The existence of the magnetic monopole, first suggested by the curious asymmetry of Maxwell's equations from over 150 years ago, if confirmed would mark a revolutionary paradigm shift in our understanding of the universe, resounding across the entire field of physics, from electromagnetic theory to cosmology.This scientific quest has involved, dire...
