Pretty introductory, but whets your appetite for the mathematics and experimentation that his statements rely on. It's especially cool to hear him talk about the uncertainties in the laws at that time and look to what's been learned since then.

Uncontroversial opinion: I really enjoy Also Sprach Zarathustra

weird fact: you can actually give a class pretty much any name you want using `type`: special chars (including periods!), spaces, numerals
