Features: Highly recommended by Stephen Hawking, author of "A Brief History of Time," and Fritjof Capra, author of "The Tao of Physics." This book profiles the last few years of the life of modern Einstein, the legendary 20th-century physicist Richard Feynman. It is filled with Feynman's reflections on life and records his research on the important theory of modern physics, "String Theory." It is a book equally rich in spirit and knowledge. In the winter of 1981, a young physicist struggling to find his place in the world engaged in a two-year deep dialogue with the legendary physicist Richard Feynman, who had little time left. Amidst their thoughts on science and life, the wisdom of the legendary 20th-century scientist Feynman in his final years shone through. How do scientists think? What is creativity? The playful and vibrant life attitude of the "scientific rogue" Feynman provided an eager and bewildered young man with a fresh perspective on the essence of science and a new understanding of life. Dedicated to every reader who feels lost in a new field of life and is striving to contemplate the future. Come knock on Feynman's door, and he will guide you to find your own path.
