دانلود کتاب Tuva or bust! Richard Feynman’s last journey

In 1930s, a young stamp collector named Richard Feynman coveted the unusually exotic stamps from a land called Tannu Tuva, ringed by mountains deep in Siberia, just beyond Outer Mongolia.Forty years later, the maverick Nobel Prize - winning physicist challenged his side-kick, fellow drummer and geography enthusiast Ralph Leighton: "Whatever happened to Tannu Tuva?" Thus began a poignant and funny decade-long adventure. When the pair found Tuvas capital on the map,they were hooked. "Any place thats spelled K-Y-Z-Y-L," Feynman exclaimed, "has just got to be interesting!" In their efforts to reach Tuva, Leighton and Feynman learned of its resident shamanic shepherds who rever the Dalai Lama, discovered the wonders of "throat-singing",and brought to the United States the largest archaeological exhibition ever from the Soviet Union.
