Description: A Brilliant Madness is the story of a mathematical genius whose career was cut short by a descent into madness. At the age of 30, John Nash, a stunningly original and famously eccentric MIT mathematician, suddenly began claiming that aliens were communicating with him and that he was a special messenger. The program features interviews with John Nash, his wife Alicia, his friends and colleagues, and experts in game theory and mental illness. For more information, visit http://bit.ly/brilliantmind.
