Swati Jaiswal's Reviews > Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!

My god, such candor and full of life attitude, is something I didn't expect from a physicist (yes stereotypes). I really didn't want this book to ever end. It's such fun and engaging storytelling that it's hard to believe it all to be true. The title is certainly the most appropriate.
Nevertheless the book is full of inspiration. I really look upto him now. He keeps reminding me of a professor of mine and then I feel, perhaps the teachers are one of a kind characters. Moreover, there are all big events and then there are the background stories coming from Mr. Feynman. I couldn't stop giggling, smiling and eventually laughing my heart out with every chapter. He somehow tries to portray himself as one not so important naive young human trying to make his way through the world whereas we all know what an intelligent and great physicist he was and — as the stories uncover — an artist too.

Overall, candid personality, fun stories, inspiring life and engaging storytelling is what this book is about.
