This fascinating book assembles human stories about physicists and
mathematicians. Remarkably, these stories cluster around some general
themes having to do with the interaction between scientists, and with
the impact of historic events -- such as the advent of fascism and
communism in the twentieth century -- on scientists' behavior. Briefly,
but lucidly, some of the beautiful science that brought these scientists
together in the first place is explained.Author's webpage:
