Here is a provocative collection of essays by Philip Morrison, widely
known for his work on the Manhattan project, and later for his
involvement in quantum and nuclear physics and high energy astrophysics.
Morrison offers a stimulating look at diverse subjects ranging from
cosmology (particularly interstellar communication) to nuclear
disarmament to creative ways of teaching science. He also offers his own
perspective on his inspiring friendships with Niels Bohr, Richard
Feynman, Bernard Peters, and other physics giants.
