Disturbing the Universe by Freeman Dyson. It's his memoirs essentially. Dyson's a physicist who's worked with Richard Feynman, Oppenheimer, Edward Teller, and many others. He talks about his experience working in the space program, helping the allies in WWII, fighting for nuclear disarmament and his very interesting thoughts about the future of mankind. He has the mind of a scientist, but the soul of poet. Much of past he relates the reader with verse or mythology, or even music. I'm enjoying the book more than I thought I would.
