Description
A New York Times Notable Book • Now a Major Motion PictureThe Professor and the
Madman is an extraordinary tale of madness, genius, and the incredible obsessions of two
remarkable men that led to the making of the Oxford English Dictionary—and literary history.The
making of the OED was one of the most ambitious projects ever undertaken. As definitions were
collected, the overseeing committee, led by Professor James Murray, was stunned to discover that
one man, Dr. W. C. Minor, had submitted more than ten thousand. But their surprise would pale in
comparison to what they were about to discover when the committee insisted on honoring him. For
Dr. Minor, an American Civil War veteran, was also an inmate at an asylum for the criminally
insane.Masterfully researched and eloquently written, The Professor and the Madman “is the
linguistic detective story of the decade.” (William Safire, New York Times Magazine)This P.S.
edition features an extra 16 pages of insights into the book, including author interviews,
recommended reading, and more.
