Smartphones, nuclear warheads, moon bases, computers . . . all bear the fingerprints of one remarkable man: John von Neumann. Born in Budapest in 1903, he moved to America in 1930 and--in his work as mathematician, physicist, computer scientist, and engineer--became one of the most influential scientists of the century. Von Neumann was instrumental in the Manhattan Project and the design of the atom bomb; he helped formulate game theory, the bedrock of Cold War geopolitics and modern economic theory; he created the programmable digital computer; he prophesized the potential of nanotechnology; and, from his deathbed, he outlined a vision of artificial intelligence.
In telling the story of Von Neumann's life and ideas, Ananyo Bhattacharya explores how a combination of genius and historical circumstance allowed one man to sweep through so many different fields of science, sparking revolutions wherever he went. The Man from the Future is a thrilling biography of a visionary thinker who shaped our time.
