"Six Easy Pieces would surely have to be the only book Six Easy Pieces could be passed on to the next generation of scientists." John Gribbin, from the New Scientist Richard Feynman became a legend among students and physics teachers thanks to his outlandish and brilliant teaching style. At the California Institute of Technology, Feynman gave a series of lectures that transformed the way physics was taught all around the world between 1961 and 1963. The most approachable content from the series is Six Easy Pieces, which is taken from these renowned Lectures on Physics. In these timeless lectures, physicist Richard Feynman introduces the general reader to atoms, fundamental physics, energy, gravitation, quantum mechanics, and the connection between physics and other subjects. With his brilliant and unique wit, Feynman presents each discussion with a minimum of jargon. Filled with wonderful examples and clever illustrations, Six Easy Pieces is the ideal introduction to the fundamentals of physics by one of the most admired and accessible physicists of modern times.
