The present volume is a collection of reviews, essays and
personal reminiscences on Occhialini's scientific life and work.
Through these recollections the reader will also gain a vivid
impression of the pioneering days of elementary particle physics
when new detection methods emerged, like the triggered cloud
chamber and nuclear emulsions - two techniques perfected by
Occhialini - which made progress on comic ray physics possible in
the first place.
