This is a question Books

We love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

agreed
Richard Feynman's six easy pieces is available as an audiobook on iThings. It's a recording of him in 1960 giving introductory lectures on Physics and is one of the best things i have lisened to in ages... and i normally listen to the Nuts Podcast.

Byrson is King.

He gets a mention or two in another interesting read
by Richard Rhodes - the making of the atom bomb.

Mostly to do with his safecracking hijinks, admittedly.

It's a good book though, tells the complete story without getting too bogged down in the physics.
