'What Do You Care What Other People Think?' - Richard P. Feynman - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

'What Do You Care What Other People Think?' - Richard P. Feynman - Bog - Penguin Books Ltd - Plusbog.dk

What Do You Care What Other People Think? Further Adventures of a Curious Character is a captivating collection of reminiscences from freewheeling scientific genius Richard P. Feynman. Richard Feynman - Nobel Laureate, teacher and iconic intellect - possessed an unquenchable thirst for an adventure and an unparalleled gift for telling the extraordinary stories of his life. In this collection of short pieces Feynman describes everything from his love of beauty to college pranks to how his father taught him to think. He takes us behind the scenes of the space shuttle Challenger investigation, where he dramatically revealed the cause of the disaster with a simple experiment. And he tells us of how he met his beloved first wife Arlene, and their brief time together before her death. Sometimes intensely moving, sometimes funny, these writings are infused with Feynman''s curiosity and passion for life. ''Feynman''s voice echoes raw and direct through these pages'' The New York Times ''Outrageously gifted, iconoclastic, irrepressible ... Richard Feynman still has the capacity to suprise'' Observer ''One of the greatest minds of the twentieth century ... he was also stubborn, irreverent, playful, intensely curious and highly original in practically everything he did'' New York Review of Books ''If more scientists were like Feynman, the world really would be a better, and better understood, place'' Independent on Sunday Richard P. Feynman (1918-1988) was one of this century''s most brilliant theoretical physicists and original thinkers. Feynman''s other books, also available in Penguin, include QED , Six Easy Pieces , Six Not-so-Easy Pieces, Don''t You Have Time to Think , The Pleasure of Finding Things Out , What Do You Care What Other People Think? and The Meaning of it All .

LONGLISTED FOR THE RATHBONES FOLIO PRIZE 2021 ''One of the year''s funniest books'' i Paper ''Funny, smart, soulful and sometimes devastating ... It made me laugh and cry'' EMILIE PINE, author of Notes to Self _______________Patrick Freyne has tried a lot of stupid ideas in his life. Now, he is here to tell you about them: like the time (aged 5) he opened a gate and let a horse out of its field, just to see what would happen; or the time (aged 19) he jumped out of a plane for charity, even though he didn''t much care about the charity and was sure he''d end up dead; or the time (aged old enough to know better) he used a magazine as a funnel for fuel when the petrol cap on his band''s van broke.He has also learned a few things: about the power of group song; about the beauty of physically caring for another human being; about childlessness; about losing friends far too young. Life as seen through the eyes of Patrick Freyne is stranger, funnier and a lot more interesting than life as we generally know it. Like David Sedaris or Nora Ephron, he creates an environment all his own - fundamentally comic, sometimes moving, always deeply humane.
