“What Do You Care What Other People Think?”: Further Adventures of a Curious Character Audiobook

" Not as good as Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman. But of course that's a high standard. "

" The sequel to "Surely You're Joking", more stories of Feynman's life. This book includes a segment on the Challenger investigation. "

" not that good as surely you're joking but still an interesting read. a comprehensive summary of the challanger investigation. "

" Richard P Feynman may now be one of my new intellectual inspirations. This collection of short thoughts and memories describes several points in his life. Additionally, he reveals the behind the scenes workings of the Challenger investigation. Throughout it all, his pure thinking, individual (almost idiosyncratic) way of approaching the world and his love for science are clear. "

" This is the 2nd of Feynman's memoirs and I really enjoy his style. His books have a lot of historical context information as well as his personal opinion about absolutely everything which I find really entertaining. "

" Feynman has an Interesting personality. All through all his life he is honest to himself . "

" Very good. I really enjoyed reading this. Eager to get my hands on the book that came before this. "

" The first three stories and the last are amazing, but the rest is just ok. It's not as fun as first book, but I recommend it for those 4 adventures. "

" great follow-up, tho half the book is dedicated to his advisory in the challenger shuttle disaster and thus a bit more intense. but it's all good with the inclusion of his manifesto, "the value of science" -- that one is pure gold. "

" Silly, fun, and touching. I have to admit that I skipped the science parts in favor of the stories. But it still made me think, despite my reading it purely for entertainment. "

" Much insight into NASA and the Challenger explosion and the congressional investigation "

" This is worth picking up just for the second section on the challenger disaster. I was kind of sad about it afterwards, but inspired to learn more about shuttles, etc. "

" Again Feynman doesn't disappoint. A curious character indeed... and such a sharp mind. I would have loved to talked with him. "

" A little bit rambling in places, but the chapter on the Challenger disaster commission was really compelling and a case study of what can happen when poor communication and external pressures get the better of science and engineering. "

" Oh Mr Feynman you fox! "

" I love Richard Feynman. He has a very solid grasp on how the world works. "

" What a guy. What a great person. A less breezy read than surely youre joking, and definitely a collection of b sides relative to the original. Only exceptions are the more touching parts that deal with his relationship with his wife. "

" Just like Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman? this is an inspiring book. Amusing anecdotes, personal letters and the Challenger NASA story all give glimpses of the curiosity and philosophy of Feynman. A very string recommendation. "

" Changed how I thought about the world. "

" While I was working in pharmaceutical manufacturing management, I pretty much based my whole philosophy of management on his analysis of the Challenger disaster. Genius. "

" Bit redundant from his first book but still full of good stories and insights from a brilliant man. "

" Feynman is too accepting of what comes his way. Agreed, we shouldn't change our course because of what others think, but sometimes what others think is worth considering. "

" Good book about a great man. Feynman's accounting of his position on the Challenger accident review board perfectly illustrates how bureacracy can so easily mask incompetency by just moving slowly. Like Carl Sagan, Feynman seems like the kind of man I would really have enjoyed talking to. "

" It was a great read, especially the first part. The end is focused on the Challenger disaster, very interesting but I find it a little boring. Neverthless, it left a good message, like all Feynman's books. "

" After reading this book, I really wish I had someone like Richard Fernman in my life. Reading about his antics will have to suffice. "

" Most part of the book is dedicated to his work in the Space shuttle failure case..<br/><br/>Chapter 2 was wonderful.. "

" Feynman is more introspective in this one, compared to Surely Your Joking Mr. Feynman. I enjoy his introspection, but I do not love his books.<br/><br/>However, I feel like the epilogue in this book is worth the read itself. I wish the entire book took the tone of the epilogue. "

" The first three stories and the last are amazing, but the rest is just ok. It's not as fun as first book, but I recommend it for those 4 adventures. "

" Not as good as other books I've read by Feynman; felt like a memoir, dictated and not heavily edited; major focus on Space Shuttle Challenger investigation. "

" While definitely not as good as Surely You're Joking, this book is still fairly interesting, especially Feynman's work on the Challenger disaster.<br/><br/>For some reason, Feynman's narrative style reminds me of Holden Caulfield. "

" Clear and readable with insights into RF's thought processes. "

" The parts about his wife show a human side to Feynman you don't see in the rest of his writing, where he pretty much comes across as a dick. (And I say that, of course, with the utmost of respect for a great man.) "
