Product Description:
Nobel Prize-winner Richard Feynman was not only a great scientist and a great teacher, but also an idiosyncratic individual whose penetrating wit illuminated the world for all who came in contactwith him, either in person or in his books. FEYNMAN'S RAINBOW recounts the relationship between Feynman and Mlodinow, an intimidated young physicist who comes to Caltech during Feynman's last years and makes the elder man his mentor. The memoir gives readers an intimate look at Feynman's scientific imagination and his rivalry with fellow Nobel laureate Murray Gell-Mann. Mlodinow shows how Feynman helped himto find and nourish his own creativity, and includes extensive transcripts of their conversations, which roam over physics, art, love, happiness, and God. FEYNMAN'S RAINBOW is a moving journey of the heart and mind.
