BBC Radio 4, for those who can listen: In Our Time: The Electron with Melvyn Bragg.
Two delightful moments:
Melvyn: "Can you explain that in a way a human being can understand it?"
"No."
And a paraphrase in discussing the internal nature and make-up of an electron and further sub-atomic particles:
"These models are very useful in helping us, and they work, but they're not true, it's as close as we can get ..."
And I thought ... We could be talking about the Trinity!
