Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Basic Books is proud to announce the next two volumes of the complete audio CD collection of the recorded lectures delivered by the late Richard P. Feynman, lectures originally delivered to his physics students at Caltech and later fashioned by the author into his classic textbook Lectures on Physics. Ranging from the most Basic principles of Newtonian physics through such formidable theories as Einstein's general relativity, superconductivity, and quantum mechanics, Feynman's 111 lectures stand as a monument of clear exposition and deep insight.

About the Author
The late Richard P. Feynman was Richard Chace Tolman Professor of Theoretical Physics at the California Institute of Technology. Awarded the 1965 Nobel Prize for his work on the development of quantum electrodynamics, he was one of the most famous and beloved figures of the twentieth century, both in physics and in the public arena.

5.0 out of 5 stars Use with the Feynman Lectures (Red Books) - 3 Volume Set, July 28, 2005
By Alex Morgan (Stanford, CA) - See all my reviews
As other reviewers have stated this series has a few problems. The first is that the audio was copied from audio tapes as one long CD track without partitions which is a huge pain. The lectures are also all jumbled up into "topic areas", and the listener is left to align them to the chapters in the Feynman Lectures on Physics (the sections to which the commentator on the CD's refers are in these books. If you are learning physics for the first time, you definitely want the books to go along with at the same time (ISBN: 0201021153, or even better get the hardcover).

5.0 out of 5 stars I want to know the answer to just one question, August 10, 2006
These lectures are brilliant but useless without the aid of his red books sitting in your lap. It would have been better if the imbecile producers of these lectures had put out videos instead. Not surprising what they did. No one's given them a nobel prize

The BIG question is as follows:

Which CD or tape volums has the Principle of least action lecture?

any help would be mightily appreciated. Please post your response on this page if you want to answer. thanks to all and feynman in particular (sent by god no doubt)
