Ilustration Concering Books What Do You Care What Other People Think?

One of the greatest physicists of the twentieth century, Richard Feynman possessed an unquenchable thirst for adventure and an unparalleled ability to tell the stories of his life. "What Do You Care What Other People Think?" is Feynman’s last literary legacy, prepared with his friend and fellow drummer, Ralph Leighton. Among its many tales—some funny, others intensely moving—we meet Feynman’s first wife, Arlene, who taught him of love’s irreducible mystery as she lay dying in a hospital bed while he worked nearby on the atomic bomb at Los Alamos. We are also given a fascinating narrative of the investigation of the space shuttle Challenger’s explosion in 1986, and we relive the moment when Feynman revealed the disaster’s cause by an elegant experiment: dropping a ring of rubber into a glass of cold water and pulling it out, misshapen.

Assess Epithetical Books What Do You Care What Other People Think?

Amazing read. Wish I could meet Mr.Feynman in real life. He was surely an interesting person!

The embodiment of thinking from first principle.Great chapter about the Challenger detail investigation. Not just the 2 famous bits about Nature that cannot be fooled and the O-Ring; but the full point of view of this very naive genius.

Feynman encourages us to challenge perspectives, to let our thoughts travel beyond the borders defined by the palpable matter of us, of the world we live in. Here are few of the pathways of this journey.When an atom makes a transition from one state to another, it emits a particle of light- a scientific fact which we could transfer to the definition of us- a conglomerate of tangible atoms and feelings and thoughts and senses ( we are a population of lots of atoms (imagine a number with 27 zeros!

"What Do You Care What Other People Think?" is another series of adventures of a legendary physicist Richard P. Feynman, a sequel to "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman". This time, we witness his teenage and adult life, and his early relationship with his father and wife, which didn't show much in the first book. Furthermore, we take a closer look at the details of his experience working with NASA on a committee to investigate the space shuttle disaster in 1986.Personally, I think the first part

Two years ago I read an article about Feynman and his first wife, a love story reconstructed from the letters between them. Those are very emotional letters, clearly written by someone deeply in love. I am glad to read the title memoir about Feynman and his first wife. The major essay in the collection is Feynmans investigation of Challenger space shuttle incident. It is a fascinating read. I grimaced and laughed out loud! It goes without saying Feynman was extremely intelligent, but he was not

I had a conversation with a coworker a couple days ago about whether leadership can be taught. Can you make somebody into a great leader? If so, then why are so many people bad at leading? I really have no idea. But what I am far more certain about is whether there are natural born leaders; Im sure there are, and Im sure Feynman was one of them. Something about Feynmans voice, about his way of seeing and thinking about the world, makes me respond quite automatically. I stop being skeptical; Ill

"If we want to solve a problem that we have never solved before, we must leave the door to the unknown ajar."- Richard Feynman, What Do You Care What Other People Think?An interesting book. Not as good as Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!: Adventures of a Curious Character, but it is still a gem. Part 1 of the book (A Curious Character) contains roughly 9 essays spanning Feynman's life. Some of the essays are expansions of stories and essays from other books. Part 2 (Mr. Feynman Goes to
