A review by clmerle
The Last Man Who Knew Everything by David N. Schwartz

5.0

Really an excellent biography. It gives one more view of the Manhattan Project and Fermi’s role in it. If you are a fan of Richard Feynman, this gives a bigger picture of the physics world prior to Feynman. And there are a few passages where the two interact. As the book notes, had he not died so early, Fermi might be better known today outside of physics.
