      Richard Feynman! I’ve read a lot of his books, and he is funny but also able to say things clearly and interestingly.

      In my opinion, although he was clever, Isaac Newton was a bit weird and believed alchemy was possible (turning lead into gold).

      I like Stephen Hawking a lot too, but Feynman has my vote!

      Issac Newton! He saw the world in such a unique way. He discovered so many wonderful things, and created a whole new branch of maths to prove and explain them.

      I have to agree with Rob and say Richard Feynman. He was great at explaining difficult concepts to a general audience, which is a very tough thing to do!
