Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!

Like Shannon, Feynman was a curious character who cannot be easily encapsulated in a single description. He played a role in many instrumental discoveries in both science and engineering, and his interests varied widely (like many other historical polymaths). Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman is perhaps the best book to read for a glance into the witty world of Feynman, following him in his travels across America as well as internationally. You probably owe it to yourself to read this book at least once, so you’ll know what all the hubbub of Feynman is about (but don’t just stop there!).
