Frank Wilczek is a world-renowned theoretical physicist and mathematician and currently a professor at MIT. Adept at explaining scientific topics such as dark matter, string theory, and more recently the God particle, Wilczek was awarded a Nobel Prize for work he began when he was just 21. His television appearances include “ghostbusting” for Penn & Teller, who called Wilczek “the smartest guy we’ve ever had on the show.” His latest book, Lightness of Being, appeals to a wide audience and was lauded as “a lively, playful, and inventive tour de force.”
