5-0 out of 5 stars Classic!
This book is an classic in the area of physics. Anyone who likes physics should read it. Feynman makes everything much more simple to understand.

5-0 out of 5 stars Genius and Humanity
R.P. Feynman was more than just a physicist with a staggering intuitive understanding of the machinery of complex equations and physical laws, he was also very human and sane and filled with simple awe at the natural world. If you want to begin to understand the kind of genius he had, and to feel his enthusiasm for teaching, then buy the first book of this set. It is the easiest to follow since it deals with basic physics for the most part. If you have a solid physics background, and/or a high IQ, then venture forth into volume two and three. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars A brief review
The original Feynman's point of view about world is always matter of greatest interest. He deeply investigate, as ever he did, the principles of gravitation theory and beyond.

5-0 out of 5 stars Fascinating
This is a wonderful book which shows how a classical field theory like General Relativity can be derived from a quantum field theory.It also points out the extreme difficulty of accomplishing this in the case ofgravity and ending up with a consistent, anomaly free theory.

Readersof this book will benefit from familiarity with both quantum field theoryand relativity as well as a certain amount of mathematical sophistication. Don't be fooled by the similarity of title to other "Feynman Lectureson..." because this book is based on an upper level graduate physicscourse and assumes the background of a typical PhD student inphysics.

Deep, complex and difficult going but well worth the effort tosee the elegance of the connection between General Relativity and QFT.

5-0 out of 5 stars General relativity as a quantum gauge field theory.
Feynman gave a series of lectures on gravitation at a graduate seminar at Caltech in 1962. The lectures were recorded and transcribed by Morinigo and Wagner. A very readable introduction on quantum gravity was added by theeditor, Brian Hatfield (whose book on quantum field theory and strings, Ialso recommend.) This is the only book I've seen which develops GR from aquantum field theory point of view. Feynman's lectures show that the GRfield equations result from the requirement of gauge invariance underLorentz transformations for a massless spin-2 field (i.e graviton). This isa more fundamental approach than the usual differential geometric frameworkand shows what the equivalence principle really means in terms offundamental symmetries. Highly recommended for a modern field theoryviewpoint of GR. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars NOT A BOOK! Audio Vol. 15 Feynman on Electricity & Magnetism
THIS REVIEW IS FOR THE RECORDED AUDIO LECTURES ON TAPE. IT IS A REVIEW OF AUDIO VOLUME FIFTEEN - NOT ANY OTHER VOLUME AND NOT THE "FEYNMAN LECTURES ON PHYSICS" BOOK DESPITE AMAZON'S PLACEMENT OF THIS REVIEW ON THE PRINTED BOOK WEB PAGE. (the system also seems to miss-associate these reviews with the incorrect audio volumes.)
This volume is part two of "Feynman on Electricity & Magnetism" - Volume 14 is part one.

OK, that warning aside, the subject is Electricity & Magnetism. The man is Feynman. Here's what you get:
Six hours of Feynman lecturing (in his characteristic idiosyncratic demeanor) to students at the California Institute of Technology during the early years of the 1960's. Yes folks, that's right: Six 1 hour lectures on six audio tapes covering the chapters 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, & 14 from which volume two of the printed lectures was transcribed. The lectures also cover some serious mathematics (Differential & Vector Calculus). This is where owning a copy of the printed lectures is necessary for following his use of the massive University lecture hall chalkboards. Of course Professor Feynman makes use of the chalkboard which you won't have the advantage of seeing but you could keep a copy of the printed lectures on hand (separate purchase) to get whatever visuals you need from the transcribed illustrated diagrams which were published (I do this and it's handy). The only audio editing is from the publisher announcing the date, lecture title, and where each chapter subsection begins. It is interesting to hear the background noise of the students as they file in and out of the lecture hall and towards the end of each lecture. You also hear bells in the hallway signaling the end of the class or possibly the lunch break. The students enthusiastically demonstrate their appreciation of Professor Feynman's efforts by applauding him at the end of each lecture. Mostly I just listen to these tapes (I have a collection of over 80 taped lectures) on my one hour a day commute each day, over and over again. It's like I'm always in school with the great genius of Feynman every day!
This audio volume (#15) is part 2 of 2 - see audio volume #14 for part 1.

Here's how these audio lectures correlate to the printed 'Lectures on Physics' by audiocassette to volume & chapter for each book:

Tape 1 was recorded on Oct 18, 1962 at CALTECH and subsequently transcribed & published in the printer volumes as follows:
Volume II, Chapter 7: The Electric Field in Various Circumstances

Tape 2 - Oct 22, 1962
Volume II, Chapter 8: Electrostatic Energy

Tape 3 - Oct 25, 1962
Volume II, Chapter 9: Electricity in the Atmosphere

Tape 4 - Nov 8, 1962
Volume II, Chapter 12: Electrostatic Analogs

Tape 5 - Nov 12, 1962
Volume II, Chapter 13: Magnetostatics

Tape 6 - Nov 15, 1962
Volume II, Chapter 14: The Magnetic Field in Various Situations

4-0 out of 5 stars Audio Volume #14 Feynman on Electricity & Magnetism PART ONE
THIS REVIEW IS FOR VOLUME 14 OF THE RECORDED AUDIO LECTURES ON TAPE - NOT THE "FEYNMAN LECTURES ON PHYSICS" BOOK AND NOT ANY OTHER AUDIO VOLUME DESPITE AMAZON'S PLACEMENT OF THIS REVIEW ON THE WRONG VOLUME PAGE. (the system also seems to miss-associate these reviews with the incorrect audio volumes.) THIS IS PART ONE OF TWO VOLUMES ON ELECTRICITY & MAGNETISM - VOLUME #15 IS PART TWO.

OK, that warning aside, the subject is Electrodynamics. The man is Feynman. Here's what you get:
Six hours of Feynman lecturing (in his characteristic idiosyncratic demeanor) to students at the California Institute of Technology during the early years of the 1960's. Yes folks, that's right: Six 1 hour lectures on six audio tapes covering the first six contiguous chapters from which volume two of the printed lectures was transcribed. The lectures also cover some serious mathematics (Differential & Vector Calculus). This is where owning a copy of the printed lectures comes in handy for following the lecture from his transcribed use of the massive University lecture hall chalk-boards. The only audio editing is from the publisher announcing the date, lecture title, and where each chapter subsection begins.

It's like I'm always in school with the great genius of Feynman every day!
This audio volume (#14) is Part 1 of 2. The next six contiguous lectures will be available in audio volume #15. By the way, I wrote the publisher (Perseus Books Group) and asked them when Part 2 would be available to which they promptly sent the helpful reply:
'Volumes 15 and 16 of the Audio Collection will be coming out this spring. Volume 15 (Feynman on Electricity and Magnetism, Part 2) contains sections on electrostatic energy, electricity in the atmosphere-including lightning and thunderstorms-magnetostatics, and the magnetic field. Volume 16 (Feynman on Electromagnetism) discusses the vector potential, laws of induction, and the Maxwell equations. According to our production schedule, both volumes should be available by April.'

Product Description

For more than thirty years, Richard P. Feynman’s three-volume Lectures on Physics has been known worldwide as the classic resource for students and professionals alike. Ranging from the most basic principles of Newtonian physics through such formidable theories as Einstein’s general relativity, superconductivity, and quantum mechanics, Feynman’s lectures stand as a monument of clear exposition and deep insight. Responding to the tremendous clamor for the original audio tapes from which the Lectures on Physics were transcribed, Persues Books is releasing Feynman’s original recordings, remastered for modern audio equipment and re-organized for cohesiveness and convenience. Timeless, and collectible, these tapes will serve as a comprehensive library of essential physics by a legend in science.The first two sets of recordings of Feynman’s landmark Lectures on Physics comprise a beginning and an advanced course on quantum mechanics, respectively.Volume 2 makes up a course in Advanced Quantum Mechanics and includes chapters on symmetry in physical laws, identical particles, symmetry and conservation laws, the hydrogen atom and the periodic table, and the Schrödinger equation in a classical context (this chapter also includes a seminar on superconductivity).

5-0 out of 5 stars "Principia" for our times
Isaac Newton wrote "Principia" in the 1600's, and it was the definitive book on Physics, although it is basically unreadable. (Now, of course, it is also slightly outdated.) Feynman has done a better and muchmore complete job than Newton himself.

Having said this, this is NOT abook for the layman. It appears simple: heavily conceptual, few equations,no homework problems at the end of each chapter. But this is deceiving. Asan undergraduate physics student, I was completely lost. It was only as agraduate student in physics that I came to not only appreciate them, butlove them.It turned out to not be just me: I later read that hisundergraduate students at Cal Tech dropped the course in droves when hetaught it; it was the graduate students and fellow physics faculty membersthat filled most of the seats in the lecture hall by the end of the course.

Those of you with a physics background that have never read Feynmanshould definitely consider it. Those of you who majored in History, Law, oreven Biology and want to gain some insight into all this physics stuff youhave always heard about should probably look elsewhere. This is heavystuff.

5-0 out of 5 stars Feynman's typical excitement and enthusiasm are evident.
In this collection of audio lectures on advanced quantum mechanics and related topics, Richard Feynman exhibits his typical excitement and enthusiasm for the subject he knew so well.These lectures are bestlistened to while viewing the text version of the Feynman Lectures, as thetopics are complex and difficult to conceptualize without the printed page. The pages, however, really come to life when you actually hear Feynmangive the lectures.A much fuller picture of quantum mechanics is obtainedthan by employing the text or the tape separately.These publicationsconstitute a wonderful way to acquirean appreciation for and an increasedknowledge of physics from one of its best teachers. ...
