Richard P Feynman All Books Editorial Review
The Pleasure of Finding Things Out: The Best Short Works of Richard P. Feynman is a wonderful collection of essays, stories, and thoughts that range from nanotechnology to covert pranks in the Manhattan Project. The book features Feynman's sense of humor and love for truth and discovery that shines through every page. The author's ability to convey complicated principles effectively and his questing mind have affected everything from nanotechnology to the results of the inquiry to the cause of the Challenger disaster. The book is recommended even for those who are not experts in quantum physics and is especially recommended for people who like to ask "why?". It is an eye-opener even for those who have limited knowledge of science. The reviewers found the book both enjoyable and enlightening, and one person mentioned that the book made them smarter. Overall, The Pleasure of Finding Things Out is worth the read for those interested in science, biographies, or humor. Feynman's love for science and his disregard for authority and silly rules make this book well worth a try.
