Andrei Sakharov: The Man Who Was Not Afraid
29.99 €
Who is our hero today? What is his superpower? As a child, Andrei was shy - he couldn't even talk to his desk mate. But many years later, it was his quiet voice that sounded louder than the explosions of the most destructive bombs and the opinions of the most important politicians. Andrei Sakharov, like all of us, had to choose: to think for himself or to take his word for it, to speak or to remain silent, to intervene or to stand aside. His life was like a scientific experiment that often led to unexpected results. Making mistakes, facing failure and betrayal, Sakharov always chose action: he questioned what was considered indisputable, spoke on equal terms with heads of state, challenged disenfranchisement, injustice and authority. A brilliant physicist, the "father" of the Soviet hydrogen bomb, and a human rights activist, Nobel Peace Prize winner, Sakharov was a man who was not afraid - to think, to speak out, to defend.
