This short introduction to elementary particles poses the questions: are quarks the fundamental building blocks of matter; what are they like; how many different kinds exist; and can they exist in a free state? It discusses the ultimate structure of matter: atoms, the nucleus, protons, neutrons and pions, and quarks.
