52. Flashforward- Robert. J. Sawyer

 

If you’re a science nerd and the thought of working at, or even just touring CERN, this is the book for you!  I loved all the particle physics parts.

It is far far different from the TV series, by the way.

CERN attempts an experiment to produce the Higgs boson. Suddenly every person on earth loses complete consciousness and many have visions of a few minutes in the future, in the year 2030 to be precise.

Was it the experiment? If so, why? How? Could they reproduce the phenomenon? Should they?  How else to discover what was the cause?

Nerdy scientists arise!
