The enfant terrible of American physics describes how his sense of continuous wonder, his childlike curiosity about anything and everything, led him inevitably to a life in science. That the connecting link between curiosity and the Nobel Prize is comprised of perseverance and brilliance is made abundantly clear by Feynman’s far-ranging and self-deprecating remarks, which again and again underscore how for him the most abstruse insights were—perfectly obvious!
