The Man Who Bent Light : Father of Fibre Optics Hardback

Hardback

Description

The father of fibre optics, Narinder Singh Kapany was far more than your typical multi-hyphenate.

Inventor, art collector, sculptor, farmer, entrepreneur, teacher, and a successful businessman, Dr Kapany was what Fortune magazine in its 1999 issue called, 'one of the seven unsung heroes of the 20th century'.

An insightful and inspirational life story, this memoir chronicles his 90 remarkable years.

Charming, idiosyncratic, and highly engaging, The Man who Bent Light serves up enough variety and verve to celebrate the lives of a half-dozen individuals.

But there is only one Narinder Singh Kapany, and his life, illuminated in his singular memoir, is a life like no other.
