Synopsis

[Feynman, Richard] Leighton, Robert B. / Sands, Matthew L. The Feynman - Lectures on Physics. Commemorative Issue. 3 Volumes (complete set). Menlo Park / Redwood City, Addison-Wesley for CIT, 1989. Quarto. More than 1800 pages. Original Hardcover in original slipcase. Excellent condition. Near Fine or even better, with only some signs of wear to the slipcase. The most interesting publication for all scientists. A complete set of Richard Feynman's famous lectures at CALTECH (California Institute of Technology). Here in the wonderful commemorative issue in slipcase. The publication includes for example the following lectures: Atoms in Motion / Basic Physics / The Relation to Physics in other Sciences / Conservation of Energy / Time and Distance / The Theory of Gravitation / Motion / Newton's Law of Dynamics / Conservation of Momentum / Vectors / Characteristics of Force / Vectors / Work and Potential Energy / The Special Theory of Relativity / Relativistic Energy and Momentum / Space-Time / Rotation in Two Dimensions / Center of Mass / Moment of Inertia / The Harmonic Oscillator / Algebra / Optics - The Principal of Least Time / The Origina of the Refractive Index / Color Vision / Quantum Behaviour / The Relation of Wave / Applications of Kinetic Theory / The Laws of Thermodynamics / Ratchet and Pawl / The Principal of Statistical Mechanics / The Kinetic Theory of Gases / Diffusion / Sound - The Wave Equation / Beats / Harmonics / Symmetry in Physical Law / etc. etc. Richard Phillips Feynman (May 11, 1918 - February 15, 1988) was an American theoretical physicist known for his work in the path integral formulation of quantum mechanics, the theory of quantum electrodynamics, and the physics of the superfluidity of supercooled liquid helium, as well as in particle physics for which he proposed the parton model. For his contributions to the development of quantum electrodynamics, Feynman, jointly with Julian Sc..

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This three volume work was originally designed for a two-year introductory physics course given at the California Institute of Technology — a course designed to take advantage of readers' increasing mathematical prowess and to provide a more comprehensive view of modern-day physics. The volumes are an edited version of Richard Feynman's lectures, taped and transcribed specifically for the books. Feynman's effective classroom style remains intact in these volumes, a valuable work by a remarkable educator. It is a rigorous undertaking that resulted in a classic reference work for anyone interested in physics.
