Eureka Man brings to life the genius of Archimedes and chronicles the remarkable saga of the Archimedes Palimpsest-the long-lost manuscript rediscovered in the twentieth century, a vivid reminder that Archimedes' cumulative record of accomplishment places him among the exalted ranks of Aristotle, Leonardo da Vinci, Isaac Newton, and Albert Einstein.…
