I am finishing the book "Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman! (Adventures of a Curious Character)" and what a refreshing and wonderful reading. After all the technical books about programming languages and this or that technology, it is fantastic to enjoy the stories about science and numbers, about the fascinating inner world of our universe from a "curious character".
The stories make the readers aware of many "ordinary" and every day things from a scientific point of view but also shows the human and normal side of an incredible mind that sometimes we forget by the halo of his achievements.
A few links if you want to learn more about Richard P. Feynman:
