The Structure of the Proton by R G Roberts

This book describes our present knowledge of protons and neutrons, the particles which make up the nucleus of the atom. The understanding of this detailed substructure, and of the fundamental forces responsible, is one of the keys to unravelling the physics of the structure of matter.
"..a concise, complete, and up-to-date summary of the field, from precise definitions of lepton-nucleon cross-sections in terms of structure functions, to their interpretation in terms of the quark-parton model, to perturbative quantum chromodynamics and nuclear effects." Gabriel Karl, Science
"Written by one of the subject's leading experts, it comes as no surprise to find that all the important theoretical and experimental results to date are included. Together with a beautifully clear writing style, this makes an invaluable purchase for beginners and experts alike." CERN Courier
