What Do You Care What Other People Think?

What Do You Care What Other People Think?: Further Adventures of a Curious Character is the second of two books consisting of transcribed and edited oral reminiscences from American physicist Richard Feynman. It follows Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!

The book presents his life as a series of humorous stories which highlight his wit and intellect. Prepared as he struggled with cancer, it was the last of Feynman's autobiographical works.

Nearly half of the book deals with his involvement on the Rogers Commission investigating the destruction of the Space Shuttle Challenger.

The book is much more loosely organized than the earlier Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!, and contains short stories, letters and a few of the sketches that Feynmann drew in later life when he had learned to draw.

The stories are engaging, lively, and sometimes sad. Especially of note is the story of his first wife, Arlene, who contracted tuberculosis and died while Feyman worked on the atomic bomb. They serve to provide insight into a man who, while a remarkable physicist, was really driven by his compassion, humour and sense of fun.
