The neutron has no electric charge and weighs nearly 1,840 times that of the electron. Discovered by James Chadwick in 1932, the neutron helped explain many phenomena from the existence of isotopes to atomic fission. Bortz's book illuminates the nature of this particle in an understandable manner for science-minded kids.
