Richard Feynman Got ADVICE From VON NEUMANN That Changed Everything

Описание: Richard Feynman Got ADVICE From VON NEUMANN That Changed Everything

I thought I was smart. At twenty-one years old, I had just arrived at Princeton with a perfect score on my physics entrance exam. The only person in history to do that. People back at MIT told me I was special, a genius even.

Then I found out who was coming to my first seminar. John von Neumann. The man they called the smartest human being who ever lived.
