In this biography of hydrogen, Rigden shows how this singular atom—the most abundant in the universe—has helped unify our understanding of the material world from the smallest scale, the elementary particles, to the largest, the universe itself. It is a tale of startling discoveries and dazzling practical benefits spanning more than 100 years.
