About this audiobook
A chronicle of the brilliant life of Nobel Prize-winning scientist Richard Feynman. From his role in the development of the atomic bomb to his controversial testimony at the investigation of the Challenger disaster, Feynman casts a long shadow across the worlds of physics and mathematics. Through playwright Arthur Giron's eyes, we see how Feynman became one of the most important scientists of our time.
Includes an interview with Dr. Brian Greene, Professor of Mathematics and Physics at Columbia University, and author/presenter of NOVA’s “The Elegant Universe.”
