Richard P. Feynman, Nobel Prize winner in Physics, sought and enjoyed provocative adventures. In this book, a global best-seller for many decades, he narrates, in a unique way, his experiences from meetings and exchange of ideas about modern physics with Einstein and Bohr, from discussions about gambling with Nick the Greek, from his entertaining habit of breaking into the unprotected safes of the army where the atomic secrets of the USA were kept, from his efforts to learn to play the bongos to participate in the Brazilian carnival of Rio, from his painting exercises with strippers in California - and many other unexpected incidents in the life of one of the greatest theoretical physicists of our time. In short, here is recorded the eccentric greatness of Feynman - a volatile mixture of high intelligence, unlimited curiosity, and boundless audacity.
