I know this might look a bit scary to you lot, knowing how somalis hate physicists. But the guy is on a league of his own, and he has lots to say in almost any subject you can think of. If you're the least bit interested in science or just want to listen to some interesting stories hit that link, you wont regret it.

Yeah, his books are absolutely amazing, you should check:

- The Pleasure of Finding Things Out

- 6 Easy Pieces

- 6 Not-so-easy Pieces

- Surely You Must Be Joking, Mr. Feynman

You really don't need to be a matematicien to read that one ( it's a biography), but he still shares two-three fun mathematical tricks he used to impress his collegue, and believe me, impressing the people who developped the Atom bomb was probably quite a challenge.
