The Meaning of it All, Thoughts of a Citizen-Scientist --Richard P. Feynman

 Nonfiction / lecture transcription

133 pages

3 Stars

 

I feel like I’m committing a heinous crime in giving this book only 3 stars. I love Feynman’s books, but this one, well, meh. Perhaps, had I attended the lectures at the University of Washington, I would have enjoyed the book more, but I found them to be meandering, with little to no point. I gather from some of his remarks, they were humorous, but on the page, the humor fell flat. 

 

Read his other books but skip this one. This isn’t a bad book but it isn’t a good one, either.
