What do you care what other people think? Feynman, Richard P.
What Do You Care What Other People Think? is a collection of short autobiographical stories by the late Nobel Laureate Richard P. Feynman details his curious, fun loving, and unique outlook on life. Richard Feynman won the Nobel Prize for his many contributions in physics, and was a Professor at the California Institute of Technology. Included in this book are his insights into the space shuttle Challenger's explosion that he obtained when he served on the Presidential Commission that investigated the accident. The great thing about this book is that you can read it in bits and pieces. This is a helpful feature because Feynman's adventures take time to ponder and digest! Another timeless book about his life was also a New York Times bestseller, 'Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!' which is also a collection of autobiographal shorts. Six Easy Pieces : Essentials of Physics Explained ... is a different type of book by Feynman in that it is strictly devoted to physics, and is written in a way general readers are able to understand some of the most advanced concepts in physics. These are fantastic books, and highly recommended to all, especially the two autobiographal books.
