Description

"The whole thing was basically an experiment," Richard Feynman said late in his career, looking back on the origins of his lectures. The experiment turned out to be hugely successful, spawning publications that have remained definitive and introductory to physics for decades. Ranging from the basic principles of Newtonian physics through such formidable theories as general relativity and quantum mechanics, Feynman's lectures stand as a monument of clear exposition and deep insight. Timeless and collectible, the lectures are essential reading, not just for students of physics but for anyone seeking an introduction to the field from the inimitable Feynman. Read more

    • classic on the subject
Format: Paperback
The Feynman lectures are classics. What happened was that he gave lectures, and the students put together their notes. Feynman had one of the clearest understandings of physics of anyone in the 20th century, and it shows in this book. This is well worth reading, if you are interested in the subject. It's like a dessert tray, for me. ... show more

    • A classic revised and corrected.
Format: Paperback
This book series has acquired legendary status in the physics world. I strongly recommend this , and the other 2 volumes in the set, as reference books for any student pursuing physics , electronics, or other technical fields. I would have liked to have this when I got my BSEE degree. A lot of the classes would have been easier! ... show more

    • Totally brilliant exposition, but not for beginners
Format: Paperback
There are brilliant insights in virtually every chapter, and lots to think about. But it does not work as an introduction to the subject. It is really the ruminations of an expert.

    • great book
Format: Paperback
all books by feynmann are both fun to read and very informative, he lets you know when a difficult topic is difficult - some authors write in such a way that even the difficult material is easy. feynmann tells it like it is. This goes for all of his books

    • With the corrections, definitely one of best !compare with other books of this type!!!
Format: Kindle
This is the next to most current version(6edition I believe), still some typos , but far far less than the rush edition that the book started life as,for those who think it's out of date, think again,you tube has similar more modern version, and it's still the same physics! And with the improvement and corrections, an excellent service, but be warned you have to know math,( algebra ,calculus,trig, and adapt the math formulas to math lab, measurements!) But worth it!!! ... show more

    • Very Approachable Text
Format: Paperback
Its really amazing, how Feynman is able to route the learner through that complex matter without leaving the learner behind! For me, this is the essential book one needs to (try to) understand what QM is.
