"I once had the good fortune to meet Freeman Dyson."

What was the name of his book? I remember reading it in about 1979. Where'd you meet him?

I think his book was called "Disturbing the Universe"

Disturbing the Universe.

He gave a lecture to a small group of students including me. Afterwards he answered questions informally. The lecture concerned a strange connection between two branches of physics that had been discovered by Richard Feynman but never published.
