An artist, safecracker, practical joker and storyteller, Feynmans life was a series of combustible combinations made possible by his unique mixture of high intelligence, unquenchable curiosity and eternal scepticism.Over a period of years, Feynmans conversations with his friend Ralph Leighton were first taped and then set down as they appear here, little changed from their spoken form, giving a wise, funny, passionate and totally honest self-portrait of one of the greatest men of our age. Author Biography Richard P Feynman (Author)Richard Feynman was, until his death in 1988, the most famous physicist in the world. Only an infinitesimal part of the general population could understand his mathematical physics, but his outgoing and sunny personality, his gift for exposition, his habit of playing the bongo drums, and his testimony to the Presidential Commission on the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster turned him into a celebrity.Freeman Dyson, of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, called him the most original mind of his generation, while in its obituary The New York Times described him as arguably the most brilliant, iconoclastic and influential of the postwar generation of theoretical physicists.Bill Gates (Introducer)Bill Gates is a technologist, business leader, and philanthropist. In 1975, he co-founded Microsoft with his childhood friend Paul Allen and today he is chair of the Gates Foundation. Bill is the founder of Breakthrough Energy, an effort to commercialize clean energy and other climate-related technologies, and TerraPower, a company investing in developing groundbreaking nuclear technologies. He has three children. Details ISBN 1784877794 ISBN-13 9781784877798 Title Surely You're Joking Mr Feynman Author Richard P.
