Kamog, excellent choice. An QED, is interesting stuff. Well, to some it interesting anyway!
My favorite physicist would have to, but not limited to, Paul Adrien Maurice Dirac or Enrico Fermi. Their early work in the field (no pun intended) set the stage for present day theory. Both Nobel Prize winners as well.
Oh, I have read "Surely You're Joking" by Mr. Feynman!
Cheeze, LOL
