He was known to be passionate about drumming, but was irritated when people found this surprising in a famous scientist. He says his drum-beating has nothing to do with his doing theoretical physics. On the other hand, Feynman also says that the different aspects of nature are really different aspects of the same thing. Does Feynman contradict his "go-to-hell" statement if the "same thing" is applied to himself? No! Feynman was a freedom-loving human being in physics and elsewhere. Feynman's love for freedom stands out clearly in his papers. Your picture with Feynman Please send us your pciture with Feynman.

102. Brad Cox, Ph.D. Personal observations on the reliability of the Shuttle. by richard P. feynman. For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public http://www.virtualschool.edu/mon/SocialConstruction/FeynmanChallengerRpt.html

MyBank JCO JWAA Java+ ... Case Studies Personal observations on the reliability of the Shuttle by Richard P. Feynman For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for nature cannot be fooled Introduction It appears that there are enormous differences of opinion as to the probability of a failure with loss of vehicle and of human life. The estimates range from roughly 1 in 100 to 1 in 100,000. The higher figures come from the working engineers, and the very low figures from management. What are the causes and consequences of this lack of agreement? Since 1 part in 100,000 would imply that one could put a Shuttle up each day for 300 years expecting to lose only one, we could properly ask "What is the cause of management's fantastic faith in the machinery?" We have also found that certification criteria used in Flight Readiness Reviews often develop a gradually decreasing strictness. The argument that the same risk was flown before without failure is often accepted as an argument for the safety of accepting it again. Because of this, obvious weaknesses are accepted again and again, sometimes without a sufficiently serious attempt to remedy them, or to delay a flight because of their continued presence. Solid Rockets (SRB) An estimate of the reliability of solid rockets was made by the range safety officer, by studying the experience of all previous rocket flights. Out of a total of nearly 2,900 flights, 121 failed (1 in 25). This includes, however, what may be called, early errors, rockets flown for the first few times in which design errors are discovered and fixed. A more reasonable figure for the mature rockets might be 1 in 50. With special care in the selection of parts and in inspection, a figure of below 1 in 100 might be achieved but 1 in 1,000 is probably not attainable with today's technology. (Since there are two rockets on the Shuttle, these rocket failure rates must be doubled to get Shuttle failure rates from Solid Rocket Booster failure.)

Review Summaries Source Rating Date Reviewer American Scientist C David Goodstein The Guardian Nicholas Lezard Nature Stephen Battersby The NY Times Book Rev. B Timothy Ferris The Sunday Times John Gribbin Review Consensus All express great respect for Feynman, and mention how impressive he was as a public speaker. Acknowledging that there are "some nuggets of pure Feynman gold in this book" (Goodstein, who attended the lectures in person), they also find them not working quite as well on the page, especially the extemporized third lecture. From the Reviews "Feynman in person was electrifying, no matter what he spoke about. He could say more with body language alone than most people can extract from the Oxford English Dictionary. But on paper, dealing with matters far from his comfort zone, Feynman is quite another matter. The book is badly dated and atrociously edited. Many pages make the reader squirm with embarrassment." -

He was born in New York in 1918 and educated at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Princeton. From 1942 to 1945 he was involved in the atomic bomb project at Los Alamos, where he gave ample evidence of his enormous technical virtuosity as well as earning himself a reputation as a practical joker. Figure 1.34 Richard P. Feynman Click here for larger image After the Second World War Feynman went to Cornell University where he became one of the major figures in the development of quantum electrodynamics (QED). During this period he also devised his own approach to quantum mechanics called the 'path integral' or 'sum over histories' approach. This has since been applied to quantum field theory and is now the standard formalism in many areas of the subject.
