Richard P. Feynman, a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, is well-known for his significant contributions to twentieth-century physics. However, what many people may not realise is how deeply and thoughtfully he engaged with the world around him, considering various religious, political, and social issues of his time. In The Meaning of It All, readers are given a glimpse into this other side...

Combined into one volume for the first time, the updated and clarified Exercises for the Feynman Lectures on Physics provides comprehensive, hands-on practice in all the most important areas of physics, from Newtonian mechanics through the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics. A perfect complement to The Feynman Lectures on Physics, these exercises have all been assigned in Caltech's mandatory...

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,...
