Recently I enjoyed very much The MANIAC by Benjamin Labatut:
I liked the book, it uses an interesting storytelling mechanism of telling each chapter through the lens of a different historical character (his mom, his wife, friends, etc). But I think Labatut sacrificed voice and tone a little bit (there weren’t too many elements to differentiate between each narrator).
I enjoyed this one a lot.
For those who've read other books on von Neumann, do you think The MANIAC is a reasonable summary?
