How Far Are We from the Gauge Forces

During August 1983, a group of 89 physicists from 59 labora­ tories in 23 countries met in Erice for the 21st Course of the International School of Subnuclear Physics. The countries repre­ sented were Algeria, Australia, Austria, Canada, Czechoslovakia, the Federal Republic of Germany, Finland, Fran...
