About the Book

How powerful can a single man's intelligence be? Here is what Dan Kimble, the US Navy Vehicle Deputy Chief, once said about his Chinese friend Qian Xuesen, "No matter where he is, Qian is worth five divisions." This exceptional individual, Qian Xuesen, was a young Chinese aerospace scientist who studied and gained his reputation in the US. His talent was shown when he participated in the Manhattan Project, the project to build the first atomic bomb in America. After that, Qian wished that he could also do the same for his own country, but his journey back home was long and difficult. The US government was ready to offer him all kinds of support in his career to keep him in America, but his heart longed for his homeland on the other side of the globe. Did he manage to return?

This book brings to life the touching story of Qian Xuesen, who is definitely among the most brilliant scientists in modern history. He is remembered not only for his outstanding contributions to world scientific development but also for his love and devotion for China.
