I can strongly recommend an excellent biography:
The Man from the Future: The Visionary Life of John von Neumann by Ananyo Bhattacharya
I knew of von Neumann because his name shows up many many times when studying computers. But I had no idea he had several equally monumental bodies of work in such a wide range of subjects.
It’s that rare biography that helps understand the history of multiple different disciplines: quantum mechanics, game theory, computer science and more.
