Author of critically acclaimed biography of Paul Dirac to speak at Florida State
Graham Farmelo, author of The Strangest Man: The Hidden Life of Paul Dirac, Mystic of the Atom, will offer a free lecture to the public at 6 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 1, 2009, at the Florida State University Alumni Center. Although Dirac died in 1984, the book sheds new light--both personally and professionally--on one of Florida State's most distinguished faculty members ever.
