In the second, revised edition of a well-established textbook, the author strikes a balance between quantitative rigor and intuitive understanding, using a lively, informal style. The first chapter provides a detailed historical introduction to the subject, while subsequent chapters offer a quantitative presentation of the Standard Model. Review: the book quality is pretty awesome. Also the content is really nice - Even though it says Paperback, the book quality is pretty awesome. Also the content is really nice. I never thought I needed an introduction to particles I realized, I needed it badly. Even the historical introduction is really really nice. Review: Mind blowing on the quality of the book - The contents of this book is not very update as per recent discoveries from LHC is concerned but a good book as introductory on particle physics. The paper and print quality is beyond comparison get a copy guys.

When D.J. Griffith is author...
Nothing to say than awesome. He is a great author. His language on book is like a lecture with very interesting examples. He has books on electrodynamics and quantum mechanics. Both are एक से बडकर एक।

the best of the three books written by the author
In terms of the presentation, this is, in my opinion, the best of the three books written by the author. Although this book is not very technical and is appropriate for beginners, it is very entertaining to read. The author doesn't use the natural system of units $c=\hbar=1$, unlike almost all books on particle physics. I think the author could have expanded the content by including rudiments of supersymmetry.

Revised edition of a popular text book on particle physics
The revised edition continues to be as good as the first edition. A few new topics are introduced briefly. Good for teaching the first course on particle physics.

Muy buen libro
Todos los libros de Griffiths son buenos y este no es una excepción. Son libros difíciles de encontrar en las librerías habituales. Aquí lo consigues fácilmente y por un buen precio. Cualquier estudiante de física disfrutará y aprenderá con gusto de este libro.

Excellent book! (and a printing problem)
⚠️ A warning follows. This book is wonderful, and does exactly what it intends to do: a broad and detailed (and also historical!) introduction to, and review of, particle physics, WITHOUT going to into field theory. This could be a great read BEFORE studying field theory. Griffiths is a great teacher, and the book is written with the reader in mind. Love it. ⚠️ The warning: my copy, bought on Amazon UK and also printed in the UK, had a printing problem: printed too small, leaving much of the page white, making it a bit strenuous to read. Shame. The paper is of good quality, but printing is tiny.

Schöne und umfangreiche Einführung
Ich habe mir dieses Buch zur Vorbereitung auf meinen Schwerpunkt im Master-Studium angeschafft. Die von mir gesteckten Erwartungen wurden voll erfüllt. Die Lektüre ist nicht zu trivial und holt den Physikstudenten, der keine Ahnung von Particle Physics hat, an der richtigen Stelle ab. Ich habe jetzt einen schönen Einblick in das erhalten, was mich (hoffentlich) im Studium erwartet.

Quase perfeito
O livro possui um conteúdo inestimável, o autor consegue passar um conteúdo técnico mas em linguagem pouco formal, o que facilita muito o gosto pelo estudo. Mas o preço que disso é que o livro não "pega na mão do aluno", se quiser mais detalhes sobre as contas, terá que faze-las ou buscar outra referência. Sobre o material, as folhas parecem um papel cartão, não sei que tipo de papel é, primeiro livro que compro com esse tipo, são de muita qualidade e tornam a gráfica ainda mais bonita. Apesar dos pontos fortes, a encadernação é uma decepção, não fazendo jus ao preço altíssimo. A capa não da robustez alguma ao livro, ele é extremamente "molenga", o que o deixa muito instável na estante, podendo cair facilmente e danificar o material com rasgos e amasso, não fazendo jus ao preço altíssimo dele em real.
