it was amazing

This graphic novel about physicist Richard Feynman is beautiful and bittersweet. It's easy to read, but you'll probably learn a few things as well. It's obviously a labor of love. You get a sense of Feynman's life that is distilled down to some of his essential stories.

I have a special place in my heart for Feynman because my Dad (a physics professor) did too. And if you read this book, you might be tempted to jump into other Feynman books as well. I'd recommend "Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" as your next Feynman book. You never know--it might lead all the way to his book QED about Quantum electrodynamics, which is more readable than you'd expect.

If more people could teach and explain like Feynman did, the world would be a better place.
