Gah, did I just break down and order a book? I did. Classic Feynman: All the Adventures of a Curious Character.

This is the thing. I own the two volumes that make up this book (Surely, You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman! and What Do You Care What Other People Think?) but both of my copies are old now and showing it.

Worse? This hardcover edition comes with a CD with a new live talk by Feynman. Fuckers. They made me buy it. But man, if you haven’t read the two this comes from… get this. Feynman wasn’t only one of the most amazing physicists ever, he was one of the more amazing men to walk to planet. He was also funny as hell, mischievous, interesting and downright good at telling a story.

Plus a new forward by Freeman Dyson, and a closing article by Alan Alda. Damn. Yes, I admit it. I am a Feynman geek.
