The Pleasure of Finding Things Out is a magnificent treasury of the best short works of Richard P. Feynman, from interviews and speeches to lectures and printed articles. A sweeping, wide-ranging collection, it presents an intimate and fascinating view of a life in science - a life like no other. From his ruminations on science in our culture to his Nobel Prize acceptance speech, this book will delight anyone interested in the world of ideas.

"From the irregular trivia of ordinary life mixed with a bit of scientific doodling and failure to the intense dramatic concentration as one closes in on the truth and the final elation (plus, with gradually decreasing frequency, the sudden sharp pangs of doubt) - that is how science is done." (Richard P. Feynman to James D. Watson)

There's a lot of overlap between the stories, so it feels unedited. Other than that, the usual fare for Feynman - funny and insightful. Lovely voice performance as well.

You will have heard some of it already

Feynman has an uncanny ability to speak accurately and relatable about high minded concepts. Where some of these readings lose me a bit is in their rantiness - notably, his endless complaining about the pseudoscience in non-physics fields, a weird bit about the female brain (although he ultimately concludes it's as capable as a man's brain, although this still come comes off a bit dismissive), and a boring commentary on the compatibility of religion and science. My complaint isn't so much on the accuracy of these sections as much as it's about the laziness of them. The sections presaging MEMS and the insights into his work on the manhattan project are fascinating, but these other sections just feel like the late night ramblings of a college freshman. I suppose such is the way of a brilliant mind - it's perhaps necessary to take some mental shortcuts when dealing with these kinds of matters, but I don't think these thoughts were worthy of speeches and interviews.

Quite good but some thoughts are a bit lazy

Fantastic

I found Dr Feynman very interesting and logical when it came to physics and some of the engineering analysis.

I also found his stories insightful, funny and quite entertaining.

One of the drawbacks that I found was that when he ventured outside of science he sounded a bit foolish. His interest in philosophy was fleeting and superficial and it showed.

One of the pet peeves that I had was his view on religion and the supernatural. I do not mind doubt, but he never doubted evolution and accepted it as scientific dogma instead of doubting that faith and investigating the theory.

Delightful Character with lots of Insights

Can't wait to meet him someday... Maybe in another life or dimension. I wish he were around to weigh-in more on the nature of consciousness.

Feynman is my hero
