The renowned physicist brings conscience and compassion to his books, which interweave scientific explanation and humanism. The renowned Princeton physicist calls himself a frog. I'm not against the first group, but they take an exalted view of science.
Frogs typically enjoy exploring things locally and developing skills.
The brilliant frog has spent his lifetime developing skills in disciplines ranging from nuclear engineering to science writing. But he is probably better known to the digerati as the father of computer consultant extraordinaire Esther Dyson. Nonetheless, the slightly built Freeman Dyson is a giant among scientists, largely due to his talents as a writer. Dyson's writing has been widely praised for its poetry and artistry, and in 1996 he received the Lewis Thomas Prize, a Rockefeller University-sponsored award that recognizes scientists for their artistic achievements. The key to Dyson's life is that he has never been one to shy away from new experiences.
