His autobiography books condense key insights into short anecdotes, that feel pretty much like parables. It is really a practical book to learn to think by yourself, showing how easy it is to question everything around you, and have a scientific mind. For example his approach to how to do 'soft sciences' (the process to formulate hypothesis, to make it refutable, etc) can spare you reading many dense volumes. Oh, and the cargo-culting concept, once you know it you see it everywhere. In short, it is so easy and fun to read that it's definitely a must read for anyone.
I have thought about the cargo cult every day for about a year and a half now, when people are still disinfecting everything constantly over a year after we learned that surfaces aren't how covid spreads. Will we even remember where this came from in a few years when we're still doing this stuff? Nope, just a cargo cult now.
