Plot

"Yet Farmelo also reveals a man who, while seemingly lacking in emotion, could manage to love and father a family. He catches Dirac's absolute belief in the beauty of mathematics with warmth and sympathy. And Farmelo shows that Dirac's eccentricities may well have stemmed from undiagnosed autism." "The Strangest Man is a moving human story, and a study of one of the most exciting times in scientific history."--BOOK JACKET.
