Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!

American physicist Richard Feynman – one of the creators of the atomic bomb, a specialist in quantum electrodynamics, a Nobel laureate, but, first and foremost, – an extraordinary multifaceted personality that does not fit the usual framework of the "man of science" image. He was known for his penchant for jokes and pranks, wrote remarkable portraits, and played exotic musical instruments. A magnificent speaker, he turned every lecture into an exciting intellectual game. His talks attracted not only students and colleagues but also people simply fascinated by physics. The autobiography of the great scientist captivates more than an adventure novel. It is one of the few books that remains in the memory of everyone who has read it forever.
