Book Synopsis A Passion for Discovery by : Peter Freund
Book excerpt: 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 OCo such as the advent of fascism and communism in the twentieth century OCo 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: http: //freund9.googlepages.com/peterfreundwritings."
