Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"There is much new material on Bethe the man, as in Christoph Adami's detailed diary of three weeks with him ... I'm amazed at Bethe's prescience as far back as 1977 on global energy problems as they are emerging at the present time. Read about it in a revealing essay by Boris Ioffe ... I highly recommend this handsome volume."Australian Physics"I would especially recommend the book to anyone who has been involved in any way with the events described, as it brings alive many of the physicists that some of us knew only slightly, or by reputation alone."Nature"This book does an admirable task in drawing a portrait of a great scientist and a great man. Bethe's power, in my experience, was that he could always readily get to the heart of a problem in any field and solve it in the most economical way, and this comes through clearly. The book is a 'must read' for every researcher and teacher of science."CERN Courier Read more...
