Difference (from prior major revision) (author diff)

Changed: 18c18

Nash' mental health improved very slowly. His interest in mathematical problems returned and with it the ability to think logically. He also became interested in computer programming. The nineties brought a return of his genius, though living in a still feeble mind. In 1995 he finally received the Nobel Prize for Economics. He is still hoping to score substantial scientific results.
