This is not a science book, nor even a book about science,
although most of the contributors are scientists. It is a book of
personal stories about Walter Kohn, a theoretical physicist and
winner of half of the 1998 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. Walter Kohn
originated and/or refined a number of very important theoretical
approaches and concepts in solid-state physics. He is known in
particular for Density-Functional Theory. This book represents a
kind of "oral history" about him, gathered - in anticipation of his
80th birthday - from former students, collaborators,
fellow-scientists, and friends.
