Synopsis
This biography analyzes how Nobel Prize-winning mathematician John Nash's eccentric personality helped him to develop revolutionary mathematical processes, and chronicles the transformation of this prolific eccentricity into a 30-year bout of paranoid schizophrenia and eventual recovery in 1990. Nasar provides insights into this illness and its devastating effects through Nash's letters, interviews with his colleagues, and her own compilation of research in the field. A New York Times Notable Book for 1998.

Industry Reviews
"The story of Nash's accomplishments and tribulations, as told by Nasar, makes fascinating reading. We are captivated by the conjunction of genius and madness."
Boston Book Review - Lucy Horwitz (03/19/1999)

"[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."
Boston Globe - Marcia Bartusiak (07/05/1999)

"This biography reads like a novel...."
Wired - Ivars Peterson (09/20/2000)

"Audio is a wonderful way to experience this story. Fields has a pleasing tone and veteran narrator Herrmann is good, too."
Philadelphia Inquirer - Sandy Bauers (03/17/2002)
