Richard P. Feynman, winner of the Nobel Prize in physics, thrived on
outrageous adventures. In this lively work that "can shatter the
stereotype of the stuffy scientist" (Detroit Free Press), Feynman
recounts his experiences trading ideas on atomic physics with Einstein
and cracking the uncrackable safes guarding the most deeply held nuclear
secrets--and much more of an eyebrow-raising nature. In his stories,
Feynman's life shines through in all its eccentric glory--a combustible
mixture of high intelligence, unlimited curiosity, and raging chutzpah.
Included for this edition is a new introduction by Bill Gates.
