I have always been interested in science and math, although I know many people are not, which might put them off from reading this book. That would be a tragic mistake. This book is eminently readable, funny, and human, and best of all requires no knowledge of calculus or particle physics to understand or enjoy.<br><br>Richard Feynman was one of the truly great minds of the twentieth century, and his lectures are considered some of the most important works of hard science to date by the overwhelming number of physical scientists in the world. This book discusses physics in language accessible to most anyone, yet has an urbane sophistication and sense of humor about it that is able to entertain a wide variety of readers. I recommend it to anyone who wants to look inside the world of a genuine genius. Inside that world they will discover insights about science, music, societal values, the educational system, and much more, while simultaneously skewering pompous blowhards who feel superior to others due to education or upbringing.<br><br>Truly Feynman was a genius for the masses; this is my favorite of his books, but I recommend them all.
