The Feynman Lectures on Physics including Feynman's Tips on Physics: The Definitive and Extended Edition
Richard P. Feynman, Robert B. Leighton, ...

Addison Wesley, 2005

The Greatest Physics Tutorial Ever Written
Feynman doesn't just teach physics in these books: he teaches you to think like a physicist should. One complaint I've heard is that there's not enough math in them. "Too many words." (Kinda reminds you of Armadeus.) There are plenty of books that have the math. ...
  
  











  



  
Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! (Adventures of a Curious Character)
Richard P. Feynman, Ralph Leighton

W. W. Norton & Company, 1997

Breezy and informative read for any scientist!
The reviews here claim that Feynman was an egotist and it stained the reading of this book. However, I disagree completely. Feynman never claims to be self-deprecating or modest. In fact, I appreciate his candidness! I was afraid to read this book because it was ...
  
  











  



  
Six Not-So-Easy Pieces: Einstein's Relativity, Symmetry, And Space-Time
Richard P. Feynman

Basic Books, 2005

Harder than 6 easy pieces, but not extremely hard.
The title of this book probably scares off many readers, but it need not do so. This book is a sequel to Feynman's "Six Easy Pieces". Both books consist of lectures taken from Feynman's three volume lecture series, which was used for a two-year introductory physics ...
  
  











  



  
Statistical Mechanics: A Set Of Lectures (Advanced Book Classics)
Richard P. Feynman

Westview Press, 1998

a tremendous book
when i was undergrad, i read Prof. Kerson Huang's stat mech. i think that book is good. everything is covered systematically, but everything is explained 'evenly'. if u r a careful reader, u still get the ideas of the essence, like partition function plays the central ...
  
  











  



  
Classic Feynman: All the Adventures of a Curious Character
Richard P. Feynman

W. W. Norton, 2005

curious indeed
This is a wonderful read....a chance to listen to a great scientist with a wonderful quirky mind. It is all interesting, some of it very touching, but the part on the investigation of the Challenger explosion is a classic study in bureaucratic malingering.
  
  











  



  
Six Easy Pieces: Essentials of Physics By Its Most Brilliant Teacher
Richard P. Feynman

Basic Books, 2005

A worthy read
Although it is a transcribed version of a spoken lecture, Feynman's eloquence and enthusiasm nonethless makes it's way onto the page, decades after he spoke these words. His articulation of the basic concepts of physics is truely remarkable and I whole-heartedly ...
  
  











  



  
Elementary Particles and the Laws of Physics: The 1986 Dirac Memorial Lectures
Richard P. Feynman, Steven Weinberg

Cambridge University Press

Physics by two of the very best!
As usual, the best physics books are short and to the point, as is this one. The two Dirac lectures may serve as a perfectly good mini physics course all by themselves. I always enjoy a Feynman lecture, and this is no exception. He cuts to the chase without ...
  
  











  



  
The Pleasure of Finding Things Out: The Best Short Works of Richard P. Feynman (Helix Books)
Richard P. Feynman

Basic Books, 2005

great thoughts of a nobel laureate in physics
Richard Feynman was a great physicist of the 20th Century. He was unconventional but had a way of making physics interesting to students and lay people alike. When I was an undergraduate at Stony Brook in 1969, I took freshman physics from Lamb and Fowler. They had ...
  
  











  



  
QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter (Princeton Science Library)
Richard P. Feynman

Princeton University Press, 2006

A Fantastic Theory
Even though these lectures are more than 20 years old, Feynman did an incredible job of explaining a fundamental concept in Physics. I can see now why he received the Nobel prize for his work in this area. I would call him the Carl Sagan of Physics, except that Mr. ...
  
  











  



  
What Do You Care What Other People Think?: Further Adventures of a Curious Character
Richard P. Feynman

W. W. Norton & Company, 2001

Feynman was a great man
Not quite as funny as "Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman", but just as touching. A pleasure to read. This books makes us like not only the man, but it also inspires us to join his quest for scientific knowledge and rational thinking.
  
  











  



  
Quantum Electrodynamics (Advanced Book Classics)
Richard P. Feynman

Westview Press, 1998

The first great Feynman classic
This book collects a set of lectures by Feynman on quantum electrodynamics and a few reprints of his papers on the subject.Nowadays it would be a (hard) graduate course. At its time it was written for Feynman's peers. At that time the method developped by him, though ...
  
  











  



  
The Feynman Lectures on Physics on CD: Volumes 17 & 18 (Feynman Lectures on Physics)
Richard P. Feynman

Basic Books, 2009

For decades, Richard P. Feynman?s Lectures on Physics has been known worldwide as a classic resource for students and professionals. Responding to the interest in the source material from which the Lectures on Physics were transcribed, Basic Books is releasing Feynman?s original recordings. These CDs will serve as a library of essential ...
  
  











  



  
QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter
Richard P. Feynman

Princeton University Press, 1988

It takes a genius to make it simple
Feynman picks the thing that is simplest in the quantum world, a single particle, and explains it using no math. Instead of equations, the quantum theory in this book consists entirely of pictures. But this is not a popularization in the usual sense. This is not ...
  
  











  



  
The Feynman Lectures on Physics: Commemorative Issue Vol 3 (World Student)
Richard P. Feynman, Robert B. Leighton, ...

Addison Wesley, 1971

Exhilirating
I read the entire book back in college. The approach to explaining quantum mechanics was so different from the other books I read back then. The derivation of the rotation matrices, the discussion of symmetry and superconductivity, among others, were simply ...
  
  











  



  
Feynman's Tips on Physics: A Problem-Solving Supplement to the Feynman Lectures on Physics
Richard P. Feynman, Michael A. Gottlieb, ...

Addison Wesley, 2005

feynman lecture
I was there and heard these things in the early 60's. the lectures are still just as fascinating now as they were then, although I have forgotten most or all of the math that went with them.
