The inspiration for an Academy Award-winning movie, Sylvia Nasar's now-classic biography is a drama about the mystery of the human mind, triumph over adversity, and the healing power of love.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46583032545436,"sku":"9781451628425","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0712\/7616\/7324\/files\/9781451628425.jpg?v=1774471055","url":"https:\/\/bronzeandbrass.store\/products\/a-beautiful-mind-the-life-of-mathematical-genius-and-novel-laureate-john-nash-paperback","provider":"Bronze \u0026 Brass","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
