"On the night of March 26, 1938, nuclear physicist Ettore Majorana boarded a ship, cash and passport in hand. He was never seen again. In A Brilliant Darkness, theoretical physicist Joao Magueijo tells the story of Majorana and his research group who discovered atomic fission in 1934. As Majorana, the most brilliant of the group, began to realize the implications of what they had found, he became increasingly unstable. A Brilliant Darkness chronicles Majorana's invaluable contributions to science while revealing the truth behind his fascinating and tragic life." 304 pages; b&w photos and illustrations sprinkled throughout; 6.5 x 9.5 inches. References; index.
