About this title: Caltech in the 80s was the hotbed of cutting edge scientific theory. Leading the pack was noted quantum physicist Richard Feynman. FEYNMAN'S RAINBOW recounts those days, drawn from recorded conversations between the department's star and the author, a recent appointee and young physicist.

"A quick read with some good points, but not so much about finding beauty in physics (as the title suggests) as trying to find your place in the world... but mostly it was about the author's indecisiveness and not really at all about Feynman... which was a bit of a letdown."
"Great book. Not too heavy into physics. More about the personality of Feynman as seen through the author's eyes. Author was an up and coming physicist for whom Feynman was an occasional mentor."
