Synopsis

[This book] might be compared to a Rembrandt portrait, filled with somber shadows and radiant light effects, for it is the story of a dark madness illuminated by a man's genius....Nasar has delved deeply into Nash's year-by-year experiences. The detail does not weigh the story down though. Rather, her exhaustive research has been transformed into novelistic narrative....Superbly written and eminently fascinating, A BEAUTIFUL MIND is simply a beautiful book.
