The book will detail how the standard model of particle physics came together and how experimental observations supported and guided its formulation. Topics will include: Precision measurements and overall status before the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), in particular with LEP and Tevatron data, The impact of LHC data, Higgs boson measurements and other new observations of processes and phenomena, the current status and prospects for the high luminosity LHC, open directions and prospects for future experiments.
