The Last Man Who Knew Everything - The Life and Times of Enrico Fermi, Father of the Nuclear Age (Hardcover)

In 1942, a team at the University of Chicago achieved what no one
had before: a nuclear chain reaction. At the forefront of this
breakthrough stood Enrico Fermi. Straddling the ages of classical
physics and quantum mechanics, equally at ease with theory and
experiment, Fermi truly was the last man who knew everything-at
least about physics. But he was also a complex figure who was a
part of both the Italian Fascist Party and the Manhattan Project,
and a less-than-ideal father and husband who nevertheless remained
one of history's greatest mentors. Based on new archival material
and exclusive interviews, The Last Man Who Knew Everything lays
bare the enigmatic life of a colossus of twentieth century physics.
