Description

American physicist Richard Feynman—one of the creators of the atomic bomb, a specialist in quantum electrodynamics, a Nobel laureate—but above all, he was an exceptional, many-sided person who didn’t fit the usual image of a “man of science.” He was known for his love of jokes and pranks, he painted astonishing portraits, and he played on exotic musical instruments. A brilliant speaker, he turned every lecture into an exciting intellectual game. People rushed to his talks not only students and colleagues, but also anyone simply captivated by physics. The autobiography of a great scientist is more gripping than any adventure novel.
