The Pleasure of Finding Things Out
About This Book
"Richard Feynman was one of the greatest physicists of the 20th century - from his work on the atomic bomb to his solution to the puzzle of the Challenger disaster. Feynman helped to shape the world as we know it. Nobel laureate, iconoclastic icon, caring family man, amateur artist, and professional musician (in a Rio de Janeiro samba band), Feynman was a man of many dimensions.". "The Pleasure of Finding Things Out is a treasury of the best of Feynman's short works - from interviews and speeches to lectures and printed articles."--BOOK JACKET.
Editorial Note
Models the disposition of genuine curiosity — not as sentiment but as method. Feynman demonstrates refusing to understand something until you have rebuilt it in your own terms.
