作为二十世纪下半叶或许最伟大的物理学家，Richard Feynman 彻底改变了人们思考量子力学——这一物理理论中最令人费解的领域——的方式。本书作者身为一名理论物理学家，在此呈现了一部兼具叙事性与前沿科学全新阐释的科学传记。无论在工作内外都是个性格极为鲜明的人物，Feynman 在跌宕起伏的一生中重塑了我们对自然法则的认知。作者展现了其一生的全貌，从 Feynman 曼哈顿计划期间青梅竹马爱妻的离世，到他勉强

……最近惊喜地发现几个月前出了一本新传记。据说写得相当不错，而且着重聚焦于费曼的科学成就。http://www.amazon.com/Quantum-Man-Richard-Feynmans-Discoveri...
…and were recently surprised to find that a new biography came out a few months ago. It's supposed to be quite good, and has strong focus on Feynman's scientific accomplishments. http://www.amazon.com/Quantum-Man-Richard-Feynmans-Discoveri...
……更偏向个人生活而非他们的工作。哪怕是针对高技术人员，纯硬核的技术传记也少之又少。读者读完其中任何一本，都不会对这位科学家的工作有更多理解。Lawrence Krauss 写的《Quantum Man》[0] 针对理查德·费曼专门试图解决这个问题。即便在这种情况下，阐述也必须写得极其干练简明，以至于只有技术水平极高的读者才能完全看懂……
…personal life rather their work. There are very few technical biographies, even of highly technical people. Readers won't understand the work of the scientist any better after reading through one of them. Quantum Man[0] by Lawrence Krauss specifically aims to be a solution to this regarding Richard Feynman. And even in this case the exposition needs to be so terse that only the highly technical reader will fully understand…

……假装成学生去泡女大学生。一些传记作者暗示（但未证实）费曼的这种行为部分是由于年轻妻子的离世。https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8586536-quantum-man
…pretended to be a student to chase co-eds. Some biographers have suggested (but not justified) that Feynman's behavior is partly due to the loss of his young wife. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8586536-quantum-man
我对这事的了解纯粹是通过系里的口述历史。不过我 Google 了一下，显然他在康奈尔大学的那段时期在 Lawrence Krauss 的传记《Quantum Man》里有提到。这里有一篇简短的书评 [1]。据说他作为教授会假装成本科生去跟女学生睡觉。据说他还睡了好几个教职员工的妻子（我可能记……
My knowledge of it is just through department oral history. I did some googling though and apparently his time at Cornell is talked about in Lawrence Krauss's biography "Quantum Man". Here's a brief review of it [1]. Apparently as a professor he would pretend to be an undergrad to sleep with students. He also apparently slept with the wives of multiple faculty (I might have remembered…
我最近在读关于理查德·费曼的《Quantum Man》这本书，突然萌生了一个想法，想把学习物理当作业余爱好。我琢磨着在 HN 上应该能找到很多符合以下任一人群（或两者兼有）的人：1. 精通……
I was reading the book "Quantum Man" on Richard Feynman recently, when I got the notion that I should like to take on Physics study as a hobby. I figured I would find a lot of people here on HN who belong to either or both groups: 1. knowledgeable…
