I just recently started reading Richard P. Feynman's The Pleasure of Finding Things Out and it's really fun. Has anyone else read anything by Feynman or have any books by scientists (not text books) that are interesting reads?

For those who don't know who Feynman is, he was one of the theoretical physicists that worked on the atomic bomb. Look him up.

Carl Sagan's Cosmos is the classic one.

Others:
The Quark and the Jaguar - Murray Gell-Man
The God Particle : If the Universe Is the Answer, What Is the Question? - Leon Lederman
