Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman


I was talking with another trader this morning and mentioned this book which has nothing to do with trading but is still an excellent read and I highly recommend it:

'Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!' (Adventures of a Curious Character)

quote:
Richard P. Feynman (1918-1988), was a scientist, teacher, raconteur, and musician. He assisted in the development of the atomic bomb, expanded the understanding of quantum electrodynamics, translated Mayan hieroglyphics, and cut to the heart of the Challenger disaster. But beyond all of that, Richard Feynman was a unique and multi-faceted individual.

yes i know this book. i have a hard cover copy of it that i mailed to Feynman at cal tech with a return SASE. i asked him to autograph it and return the book which he did. an amusing and wonderful read.
His fan club seems to be scattered widely but I often see and hear of people quoting him. That autographed book is sure to become valuable as his popularity increases but unlike an ES contract there are other reasons that you want to hold onto it.
I have seen this recommended too many times. I must read it.
It's not expensive and readily available. I just checked now and it says:
