"This reads like a Feynman lecture at its best - accessible, interesting and filled with flashes of brilliance. He's one of the best physicists of the past century but he's unparalleled as a science educator. I'd recommend everyone with an interest in science to read this, and all the Feynman books."
"This book is no less interesting or entertaining than any of his other books, but it may be a bit more esoteric in the sense that his language tends to be a bit more formal."
"This book was required reading for PHYS 105 at Grinnell College. Called "Models", the class was designed for humanities majors towards fulfillment of the science requirement."
