Six Not-so-easy Pieces - Einstein's Relativity, Symmetry, and Space-Time

A New York Times bestseller—the outrageous exploits of one of this century's greatest scientific minds and a legendary American original.Richard Feynman, winner of the Nobel Prize in physics, thrived on outrageous adventures. Here he recounts in his inimitable voice his experience trading ideas on atomic physics with Einstein and Bohr and ideas on gambling with Nick the Greek; cracking the uncrackable safes guarding the most deeply held nuclear secrets; accompanying a ballet on his bongo drums; painting a naked female toreador. In short, here is Feynman's life in all its eccentric—a combustible mixture of high intelligence, unlimited curiosity, and raging chutzpah.

Vous Voulez Rire, Monsieur Feynman !

Dans cet ouvrage, Michael Gottlieb et Ralph Leighton ont regroupe uatre cours inedits de Richard Feynman. Les trois premiers sont des cours de revision dans lesquels Feynman, avec son humour et son recours a l'intuition caracteristiques, donne des methodes et devoile ses astuces pour comprendre et resoudre des problemes de physique. Certains exemples de problemes ont un interet historique, comme la decouverte du noyau atomique par Rutherford et la determination de la masse du meson pi. Le quatrieme cours est consacre aux eff ets dynamiques et a leurs applications.Ralph Leighton et Rochus Vogt ont complete l'ouvrage avec 80 exercices. Concus a l'origine pour le Cours de physique de Feynman, de diffi culte croissante et suivis de leur solution, ils permettent de mettre immediatement en application les astuces de Feynman.Cet ouvrage est un complement indispensable au legendaire Cours de physique de Feynman.

Feynman Lectures on Physics 2: Mainly Electromagnetism and Matter

Le Mouvement des planètes autour du Soleil

In the Messenger Lectures, originally delivered at Cornell University & recorded for TV by the BBC, Feynman offers an overview of selected physical laws & gathers their common features into one broad principle of invariance. He maintains at the outset that the importance of a physical law isn't "how clever we are to have found it out, but...how clever nature is to pay attention to it" & tends his discussions toward a final exposition of the elegance & simplicity of all scientific laws. Rather than an essay on the most significant achievements in modern science, The Character of Physical Law is a statement of what is most remarkable in nature. His enlightened approach, wit & enthusiasm make this a memorable exposition of the scientist's craft. The Law of Gravitation is the principal example. Relating the details of its discovery & stressing its mathematical character, he uses it to demonstrate the essential interaction of mathematics & physics. He views mathematics as the key to any system of scientific laws, suggesting that if it were possible to fill out the structure of scientific theory completely, the result would be an integrated set of axioms. The principles of conservation, symmetry & time-irreversibility are then considered in relation to developments in classical & modern physics. In his final lecture he develops his own analysis of the process & future of scientific discovery. Like any set of oral reflections, The Character of Physical Law has value as a demonstration of a mind in action. The reader is particularly lucky in Feynman. One of the most eminent & imaginative modern physicists, he was Professor of Theoretical Physics at the California Institute of Technology until his death in 1988. He's best known for work on the quantum theory of the electromagnetic field, as well as for later research in the field of low-temperature physics. In 1954 he received the Albert Einstein Award for an "outstanding contribution to knowledge in mathematical & physical sciences"; in 1965 he was appointed to Foreign Membership in the Royal Society & was awarded the Nobel Prize.
