Surely Youre Joking Mr. Feynman Adventures of a Curious Character - Richard P. Feynman, W. W. Norton & Company

Richard P. Feynman, winner of the Nobel Prize in physics, thrived on outrageous adventures. In this lively work that &quot,can shatter the stereotype of the stuffy scientist&quot, (Detroit Free Press), Feynman recounts his experiences trading ideas on atomic physics with Einstein and cracking the uncrackable safes guarding the most deeply held nuclear secrets-and much more of an eyebrow-raising nature.In his stories, Feynman's life shines through in all its eccentric glory-a combustible mixture of high intelligence, unlimited curiosity, and raging chutzpah. Included for this edition is a new introduction by Bill Gates.
