Summary: Happy happy happy...
Review: I was a sad and depressed Electrical Engineer, so depressed that I needed a mental therapist. After reading this book, I no longer need her and I can laugh my way through life. Any questions?

Summary: A greatest autobiography from a great man
Review: This is a must read book. It took me only two days to read it. The only problem with this book is that once you start reading it you just can't stop. One of the greatest adventures of my life.

Summary: The BEST autobiography I've ever read
Review: I am not someone who reads autobiographies and have no clue about physics. My brother bought this and on a summer afternoon (when I was about 17) I read this book and loved it. I have since read it atleast 20 times and I never tire. Feynman's intelligence and wit never ceases to amaze me.
Rating:
Summary: Feynman's humor, honesty and genious are inspiring.
Review: This is a man who's stories and attitudes are a joy to read. He was a great contributor to science, art, music and thought. This book is fabulous!
Rating:
Summary: An amazing book!
Review: This book is extremely entertaining, but there's a lot more to it than that. Feynman is my hero, and after reading this book, he'll probably be yours too, but at the very least you'll feel like changing yourself after you read the book. I'm applying to Duke University, and I'm writing an essay about how this book changed me.

Summary: One of the most comical autobiographies ever
Review: This book is extraordinarily funny, and not in a subtle or literary way. Quite simply it will have you rolling on the floor as the Nobel-laureate tells of his stint playing the frigideira (a sort of inverted metal pot) in a Brazilian school of Samba, of the time he was declared mentally unfit to serve in the army because he insisted he could sometimes hear voices in his head, or the time he serendipitoulsy pointed out a fatal flaw in the design of an uranium enriching facility even though he couldn't tell whether the symbols in the blueprints were valves or windows. Whether the stories he tells are all true or not, you have to admire Prof. Feynman's sheer inventiveness and his unmatched talent as a narrator and a humorist. A word of caution, however: a faithful movie adaptation of these memoirs would not be rated PG.
Rating:
Summary: Hilarious, amazing, inspirational, can't read it just once.
Review: This book should be required reading. No fiction author could create a more interesting, amazing character or a more hilarious story. It's an inspirational example of the advantages of thinking for yourself and living your life to its fullest. I could (and will) read this again and again.

Summary: A Delight and Requirement for People in the "Hard" Sciences
Review: I have only given out three books in my lifetime, and this was one of them. Actually, I gave two copies of this book, and probably will give more. There are many books that I praise and/or recommend, but only the best ones are given.The reader must be somewhat open-minded, but what student or practitioner in the "hard" sciences doesn't need to be that way? A definite recommendation.
Rating:
Summary: Inspiring. Unforgetable.
Review: Obviously many people have been moved by this book, as witnessed by the number of online reviews. I have no scientific background at all, and I agree with another reviewer who said "everyone should read this book." I have returned to this book many times since someone gave it to me 7 years ago. In good or times or bad, this book has been an inspiration to me. How to be yourself against the flood of conformity, how to maintain standards, how to remain human. Unforgetable.
Rating:
Summary: FUN READ
Review: Lets you know that a life of science doesn't have to be all work and no play. This is the kind of person I'd like to be. All business when necessary and knows how to have loads of fun. I wish I could have met and known him socially. Life would not have been dull.
