Seeing the movie made from this book and reading the book are two very different experiences! This is a book about math and a memoir, and author Sylvia Nascar somehow manages to render both beautifully. Even if you're not a "mathie" but you are a serious reader, this is a fascinating and thorough biography of a complex man. Once you understand that John Nash's abrasiveness and apparent cruelty come from his disability, you have to feel compassion for him and admiration that he accomplished all he did despite his handicap.
