I SAW the film A Beautiful Mind on an aeroplane, dubbed into German with subtitles in Spanish. Though I struggled to make sense of it, it was clear this wasn’t a detailed exposition of the mathematical output of its hero, John Nash. If you too hankered for more depth, treat yourself to this book. Siegfried paints a far truer picture of Nash’s troubled life, and also gets stuck into his amazing contribution to game theory. After all if ducks can do game theory (read the book to find out why), you’ve no excuse not to give it a go.
