Moving Bodies (Arthur Giron) for Android
Moving Bodies is a chronicle of the brilliant life of Nobel Prize-winning scientist Richard Feynman. From his role in the development of the atomic bomb to his controversial testimony at the investigation of the Challenger disaster, Feynman casts a long shadow across the worlds of physics and mathematics. Through playwright Arthur Giron’s eyes, we see how Feynman became one of the most important scientists of our time.
Includes a bonus feature with Ralph Leighton, the co-author of Richard Feynman’s “Surely You’re Joking, Mister Feynman!”, a best-selling collection of autobiographical stories and reminiscences.
