One of my
favorite
books! This
collection
of
anecdotes
should be
read
by
everyone
,
including
non-scientists
. Written by the late
physicist
Richard P. Feynman
.
Anyone
who reads this should also read
What Do You Care What Other People Think?
.
From the back of the book:
"Richard Feynman (
1918
-
1988
),
winner
of the
Nobel Prize
in
physics
,
thrived
on
outrageous
adventures
.
Here
he recounts in his
inimitable
voice his
experience
trading
ideas
on
atomic physics
with
Einstein
and
Bohr
and ideas on
gambling
with
Nick the Greek
;
cracking
the
uncrackable
safes
guarding
the most
deeply
held
nuclear
secrets
;
accompanying
a
ballet
on his
bongo drums
;
painting
a
naked
female
toreador
- and much else of an
eyebrow-raising
nature
. In
short
, here is Feynman's
life
in all its
eccentric
glory
- a
combustible
mixture
of
high
intelligence
,
unlimited
curiosity
, and
raging
chutzpah
."
