My pleasure! If you would like to know more about particle physics and its history I can also recommend The God Particle: if the Universe is the answer, what is the question? by Leon Lederman and Dick Teresi. It's an extremely approachable book for modern (sub)atomic physics and its history that's gentle enough to read on a bus. If I'm not mistaken the book uses any kind of formulae only in a "see these equations? they communicate to a physicist everything we were talking about for past 200 pages, but with much more detail" followed by a short explanation wtf the symbols mean.
