For over a century physicists have hoped that they were closing in on the Holy Grail of modern science: a unifying theory that would make sense of the entire physical world, from the subnuclear realm of quarks and gluons to the very moment of creation of the universe. This is a history of the attempts to find such a "theory of everything". Illustrated.
