Social Activists Editorial Review
The book "Disturbing the Universe" by Freeman Dyson, published in 1979, is a memoir and insider's look into the history of atomic weaponry and technology from World War II and beyond. The book offers insights into the life of Dyson, a mathematical physicist, and his friend Feynman, who was visually oriented. The book is well-written, interesting, and understandable, with items of interest for everyone. It provides a window into physics and physicists with understandable insights into quantum physics. It is described as a terrific insider's view of the atomic era that should be read in high school to turn students onto science and its geopolitical influences. It is a personal, fascinating, and enjoyable read that brings original and personal points of view to matters that relate humans with the rest of the Universe.
