Some Time with Feynman Summary

Some Time with Feynman by Leonard Mlodinow

Feynman was undisputably a genius. Charismatic, unpredictable and charming, after Einstein, he was the most brilliant scientist of the twentieth century. Feynman was the young Mlodinow's mentor and this book is an account of their friendship.
