A Force of Nature by Richard Reeves
Early in the 20th century, it was accepted that matter was composed of atoms. But what exactly was an atom? Ernest Rutherford would have something to say about that.

The Scale of Atoms
Much of the difficulty scientists had in discovering, and then proving the existence of, atoms, is their size. Something so small had never before been defined.
