"The Pleasure of Finding Things Out" by Richard Feynman  — 1 month ago

So, after reading the previous book on the life of great physicist Richard Feynman, I went to borrow another book which contained more philosophical stories and texts which I slowly read and understood.

It’s not exactly pure philosophy; more like a less scientific and more personal outlook towards stuff. Nevertheless it was interesting as I finally took a break from reading scientific texts.

Some parts are from “Surely You’re Joking” but I found it worthwhile to reread some parts again. I’ve got to say that Richard Feynman is an inspirational character, and these two books changed some of my opinions towards science.

“To every man is given the key to the gates of heaven; the same key opens the gates of hell.”
