Happy 30th birthday Physics World!
Whether you were around in 1988 or not, it’s time to sit back and see just how much physics has changed over the last three decades with the 30th-anniversary issue of Physics World magazine. We revisit some of the key topics and issues in physics from 30 years ago, examine how they’ve developed, and contemplate their prospects over the next three decades. You can also enjoy an interview with current IOP president Julia Higgins on the changing face of physics, discover the fate of the physics-based firms that advertised in the first issue of Physics World, and find out what some top authors and physicists think are the best popular-science books of the last 30 years.
