A Beautiful Mind by Sylvia Nasar
Sylvia Nasar's A Beautiful Mind is a compelling biography of mathematical genius John Forbes Nash. He excelled academically, receiving his doctorate from Princeton in 1950. By the age of 30, his life spiraled out of control as he descended into madness. After enduring numerous hospitalizations for paranoid schizophrenia, Nash recovered and won the Nobel Prize for economics in 1994.
