The author, Lev Borisovich Okun (1929–2015), was an outstanding Soviet and Russian theoretical physicist, Academician of the USSR Academy of Sciences/Russian Academy of Sciences, and one of the world's leading specialists in elementary particle physics. His fundamental work focused on weak interactions, gauge field theory, and the quark model; he introduced the term "hadron" into scientific use. His book "Leptons and Quarks" became a classic of popular science and educational literature.
The book is a brilliant and accessible introduction to modern elementary particle physics. It presents the foundations of the quark model, the properties of leptons and hadrons, and fundamental interactions at a high scientific level, yet in clear language. It was one of the first monographs to popularize quark theory in the USSR. The publication remains a valuable resource for students, postgraduate students, and anyone interested in the problems of fundamental physics.
