 | StanUzbeck (16) 02/18/2004 | Probably the greatest problem-solving mind of the 20th century, next to Einstein, but Feynman was a far superior mathematician. He worked on the Manhattan Project and shared the Nobel Prize for his work in Quantum Electrodynamics. He was the person who solved the mystery of why the Challenger space shuttle exploded. He sort of had his hands in everything throughout his entire career. He was also an incredibly gifted and charismatic teacher. I suggest that anyone who's interested should read Genius by James Gleick, a biography of Feynman.
