Feynman was irreverent and iconoclastic; he disdained authority and despised ceremony. Jagdish Mehra knew Richard Feynman personally for 30years. Feynman invited Mehra to spend three weeks with him shortly before his death to interview him and talk about his life , and encouraged Mehra to write this book about his life and scientific work. What has emerged is a truly authoritative account of Feynman's life and achievements.
