A fascinating account of the short but full life of one of the most brilliant minds of the modern age.
As the author states in the beginning, this is not a technical book, but it definitely sparked my curiosity about nuclear physics, nuclear reactions, and reactors. I ended up learning a lot from crossing the book with some YouTube videos on these topics.
It is awesome to think about this golden age of physics and how everything seemed to evolve so fast. However, it is even more interesting to learn about the human side of these greater-than-life personalities and understand how normal they were, while at the same time being unique.
