Autorenporträt
John Eidinow has published three books with his co-author David Edmonds, each describing knock-down, drag-out clashes between men of titanic gifts: Wittgenstein's Poker (Random House), which was shortlisted for the Guardian First Book Award and translated into over thirty languages; Bobby Fischer Goes to War (Faber & Faber), which was long listed for the Samuel Johnson prize; and Rousseau's Dog (Faber & Faber). Eidinow was a presenter and interviewer for BBC Radio 4 and World Service, working in news and current affairs, and making documentaries on historical and contemporary issues.
