Co-authored by Matthew Sands and Robert Leighton, this boxed set presents a comprehensive introduction to the fundamental concepts of physics, delivered in Feynman’s signature engaging style.
The Story
This collection brings together a series of lectures that Feynman delivered at the California Institute of Technology in the early 1960s. The lectures cover a vast array of topics, from the nature of quantum mechanics to classical mechanics, electromagnetism, and statistical mechanics. Feynman's ability to distil complex ideas into accessible language invites readers into the world of physics as if they were attending the lectures themselves.
