As a young physicist, Leonard Mlodinow looked for guidance from his mentor, the Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman. Drawing on transcripts from their meetings during their time together at Cal Tech, Mlodinow shares Feynman’s provocative thoughts and observations. At once a moving portrait of a friendship and an affecting account of Feynman’s final, creative years, this book celebrates the inspiring legacy of one of the greatest thinkers of our time.
