Little more than one hundred years have gone by since the birth of Ettore Majorana, a highly renowned theoretical physicist. His career was brief and irregular but very intense, and he disappeared in March 1938 in circumstances that still are not completely clear. This volume is a contribution to a better understanding of the scientific, academic and human personality of Ettore Majorana, beyond the layers of legendary aspects which have accumulated over the years. Based on primary sources alone-scientific literature of the period and numerous archival documents - the figure of Ettore Majorana emerges in a completely new light.A rich reproduction of original documents completes the volume.
