Review
the book is a moving, beautifully written literate and perceptive account of Feynman's life. (NATURE)
I came away from Genius feeling that I knew a lot more about Feynman and his play in 20th century science. (SUNDAY TIMES)
Gleick's narrative, consistently measured and elegant is a formidable work of scientific biography. (NEW STATESMEN)
thoughtful and fascinating. (THE LITERARY REVIEW)
