Six Easy Pieces : Book  (Paperback, Richard P. Feynman)

"If only one book could be passed on to the next generation of scientists, it would undoubtedly be Six Easy Pieces." - John Gribbin, New Scientist. Richard Feynman's extraordinary and brilliant teaching methods earned him legendary status among physics students and professors. From 1961 to 1963, Feynman delivered a series of lectures at the California Institute of Technology that revolutionized physics education worldwide. Six easy parts to this famous physics lecture make up the most accessible material in the series. In this classic course, Feynman introduces the average reader to the following topics: atoms, basic physics, energy, gravity, quantum mechanics, and physics' relationships to other subjects. With his dazzling and inimitable wit, Feynman presented every discussion with a minimum of technical jargon.
