I've been on a bit of a Feynman binge recently. I strongly recommend "Surely you're joking Mr.Feynman" and "What do you care what other people think?" Less strongly recommend, but still recommend, "Perfectly Reasonable Deviations from the Beaten Track". Previous review. All of them give significant insight into the mind of one of the master traditional rationalists and are quite funny. The first two, do better than the last one in both respects.
I second Surely you're joking Mr. Feynman and What do you care what other people think? I expect most LWers have read them, but they were absolutely fantastic if you haven't. I can't recommend them strongly enough.
Genius by James Gleick is excellent. It's a pretty dense biography, but well worth it.
