Winner of the 1965 Nobel Prize in physics, physicist Richard Feynman recounts his experiences and adventures as a scientist.

  In his book, "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!", he shares stories that include: trading ideas on atomic physics with Einstein, 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.
