Elliot Leader is Emeritus Professor in The University of London and Visiting Professor at Imperial College, London. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Cambridge and in 1967 became Professor of Theoretical Physics at Westfield College, London. In 1984 he took up the Chair of Theoretical Physics at Birkbeck College, London, where he worked for 16 years. Professor Leader has done research in universities and laboratories throughout the world, including CERN, Brookhaven, Fermilab, California Institute of Technology and the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory, Berkeley. He has published numerous papers and review articles and is the author of two previous books, both written with Enrico Predazzi.
