Feynman's unquenchable thirst for adventure and unparalleled ability to recount important moments from his life. Here we meet Feynman's first wife, Arlene, who taught him of love's irreducible mystery as she lay dying in a hospital bed while he worked on the atomic bomb at nearby Los Alamos. We listen to the fascinating narrative of the investigation into the space shuttle Challenger's explosion in 1986 and relive the moment when Feynman revealed the disaster's cause through an elegant experiment: dropping a ring of rubber into a glass of cold water and pulling it out, misshapen. In "What Do You Care What Other People Think?" one of the greatest physicists of the twentieth century lets us see the man behind the genius. Review: An interesting insight - Unlike the other Feynman book I reviewed, this does have a definite storyline that provides an inside view of a number of various events about which we mostly only know the headlines. Two of the most notable of these were the Manhatten Project and the Challenger Investigation. However, it also shows the matter of fact approach by both Feynman and his first wife to her terminal illness, though unless you have similar strength of character, it won't act as a blueprint in similar circumstances. They were both remarkable people. I do recommend this book, even though written by a man who was way above the intelligence level of most of us, because he also had the ability to engage lesser mortals by his clarity of explanation. Review: An interesting collection of anecdotes - This is a follow on from Feynman's first book "Surely you are joking Mr Feynman". It sort of picks up from where the other left off, but about half of the book is devoted to his activities as part of the panel investigating the Challenger Shuttle disaster. What I did find odd was that he seemed surprised at the behaviour and reaction of the others on the same panel; many of his comments indicate a level of bewilderment at the way that things were done and how the process was carried out. From his previous book, I would have expected him to be a lot more savvy towards the nature of those that work much more in the public sector. I wonder if he was in fact playing a double game; knowing exactly what he faced, but then pretending a level of frustration to indicate that he was not part of the same set-up. Of course, we will never know, but it is interesting to speculate. Both parts of the book are well worth reading, and this book is one that will probably require more than one viewing. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 470,334 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 69 in Scientist Biographies 201 in Popular Science Physics 19,677 in Scientific, Technical & Medical | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 2,528 Reviews | ## Images !["What Do You Care What Other People Think?" – Further Adventures of a Curious Character - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71H1G6rkW7L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An interesting insight *by N***D on 14 June 2013* Unlike the other Feynman book I reviewed, this does have a definite storyline that provides an inside view of a number of various events about which we mostly only know the headlines. Two of the most notable of these were the Manhatten Project and the Challenger Investigation. However, it also shows the matter of fact approach by both Feynman and his first wife to her terminal illness, though unless you have similar strength of character, it won't act as a blueprint in similar circumstances.

It sort of picks up from where the other left off, but about half of the book is devoted to his activities as part of the panel investigating the Challenger Shuttle disaster. What I did find odd was that he seemed surprised at the behaviour and reaction of the others on the same panel; many of his comments indicate a level of bewilderment at the way that things were done and how the process was carried out.

Both parts of the book are well worth reading, and this book is one that will probably require more than one viewing. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Genius and readable book about a genius *by H***E on 17 December 2021* Wonderfully put together collection (as with the other main Feynman book) indeed about a curious character. Even the double entendre of the cover header is great. I have a vagie feeling that our/your Mr Feyman would and may still run foul of todays woke mania... but read it...get real...and be thankfull for both the book and him. (and the author/compiler actually) Highly reccomended. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/59516692-what-do-you-care-what-other-people-think-further-adventures](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/59516692-what-do-you-care-what-other-people-think-further-adventures) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-30*
