……(在对其做出了重要贡献之后)。埃尔萨瑟是一位漫游型的科学家,(在我看来)他似乎处于“核心圈的边缘”;他记录了自己与原子时代绝大多数风云人物打交道的经历。- 《一个数学家的历险》(Adventures of a Mathematician,乌拉姆)- 《我的微薄回忆》(What Little I Remember,弗里施)- 《原子时代的物理学家回忆录》(Memoirs of a Physicist in the Atomic Age,埃尔萨瑟)- 《旅人》(The Traveller,汤川秀树)- 《反物质的发现》(Discovery of Anti-Matter,卡尔·安德森)还有弗里曼·戴森和费曼的……
…(after doing important work on it). Elasser was a wandering scientist, who (to me) seemed to be "on the outside of the inside"; he gives accounts of his dealings with most of the atomic era players. - Adventures of a Mathematician (Ulam) - What Little I Remember (Frisch) - Memoirs of a Physicist in the Atomic Age (Elasser) - The Traveller (Yukawa) - Discovery of Anti-Matter (Carl Anderson) Also Freeman Dyson's and Feynman's…
我挺喜欢乌拉姆的《一个数学家的历险》。威廉·庞德斯通的《囚徒的困境》只有一部分是冯·诺依曼的传记,但仍是一本好书。吉安-卡洛·罗塔的《沉思录》(Indiscrete Thoughts)则是一堆零碎杂烩,主要是关于数学文化的……
I liked Ulam's Adventures of a Mathematician. William Poundstone's Prisoner's Dilemma is only partly a biography of von Neumann, still a good book. Gian-Carlo Rota's Indiscrete Thoughts is a mash of bits and pieces, largely about mathematical culture…
顺便再提一句:他的自传《一个数学家的历险》真的非常值得一读。http://www.amazon.com/Adventures-Mathematician-S-M-Ulam/dp/0...
On another sidenote; his autobiography "Adventures of a Mathematician", is really worth reading. http://www.amazon.com/Adventures-Mathematician-S-M-Ulam/dp/0...

斯坦·乌拉姆的自传——《一个数学家的历险》——对此略有提及,讲了他早年在利沃夫的岁月。这是一本关于有趣的时代和有趣的人的好书——如果你对这个维基百科词条感兴趣,那你可能也会喜欢这本书。
Stan Ulam's autobiography - Adventures of a Mathematician - talks a bit about this, from his early days in Lwow. It's a good book about interesting times and interesting people - if this wikipedia article interests you, then maybe the book will also.
跑个题,不过也有点关系。乌拉姆的《一个数学家的历险》是一部极好且非常鼓舞人心的书。
off-topic, but related. Ulam's "Adventures of a Mathematician" is an excellent and very inspiring book.
