When the author first arrived at the California Institute of Technology, he was a young and uncertain graduate researcher; his conversations with the 'resident genius' - Richard Feynman - on the staff not only gave him confidence in himself, but as their relationship developed, they discussed love, creativity, happiness, God and more - as Feynman was battling the cancer that would eventually take his life. A moving and very human picture of one of the great scientific minds of the 20th century. 171 pp. SIGNED by the author on the title page. Fine in fine dust jacket (a new copy.) .ISBN # 0-44653045X
