This biography sheds new light on the life and work of physicist
Ettore Majorana (including unpublished contributions), as well as
on his mysterious disappearance in March 1938. Majorana is held by
many, including Nobel Laureate, Enrico Fermi, to have been a genius
of the rank of Galilei and Newton. In this intriguing story, the
author, himself a leading expert on the work of Majorana,
supplements the existing literature with new insights, anecdotes
and personal accounts of contemporaries of Majorana.
