The prolific Plante offers a cerebral, geographically evocative tour throug h London, New York, Lucca, and Moscow, following the merging paths of two u nhappy seekers. Art historian Claire O'Connel, never healed from her husban d's suicide, now suffers desperately from the rape of her wise young daught er, Rachel, and throws herself into her search for a lost painting.

Robert Oppenheimer-Jeremy Bernstein's account of his scien-tific beginnings will beguile anyone interested in how people become what they are. Bernstein was not "born" a sci-entist; he turned into one, very much to his own surprise. Ham radios, swim-ming, a treasured friendship with the Ellington band-such were Bernstein's youthful passions. But once at Harvard, he decided to teach himself the theory of relativity. It was the first heady step into a whole new world, a step that ultimately led him to the heart of twentieth-century physics: to a stint at the Institute for Advanced Study under Oppenheimer's electrifying influence; to summers work-ing with Freeman Dyson on the Orion spaceship project; to a year in Paris with the brilliant Murray Gell-Mann. Written with brevity, humor, and infectious charm, The Life It Brings evokes the sheer excitement of doing science along-side some of the most eminent physicists of our time. -- Since receiving his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1955, Jeremy Bernstein has lectured and taught at universities here and abroad on the theory of elementary particles and cosmology. In 1961 he joined The New Yorker as a staff writer, a position he still holds. He is the author of numerous physics papers and of twelve books, among them the classic study of the computer, The Ana-lytical Engine, and the story of Bell Labs, Three Degrees Above Zero. He also writes a biannual column for The Ameri-can Scholar, "Out of My Mind." The awards he has received for his writing include a Westinghouse-AAAS Science Writing Prize, a Brandeis Creative Arts Medal, and a National Book Award nomi-nation for his biography Einstein. Mr. Bernstein is a professor at the Stevens Institute of Technology in Hobo-ken, New Jersey, and an adjunct professor at the Rockefeller University. He lives in New York City.
