Rating: Summary: If you liked the book then try this...... Review: If you are looking for a laymans' basic physics primer, look somewhere else! If you have a background in the material and are looking for a review or for alternative views of the subject then this is appropriate.I first read the "Feynman Lectures" (in book form) during the first year of my physics studies. They struck me then, and still do, as offering inspired and inspiring insight from a first class brain. To hear him speak, after reading so much of his material through the years is a real kick. At first I couldn't imagine how one could hear the lectures without the written material in support. Although I think that this material is in fact best absorbed in conjunction with the written Lectures, yet these tapes are a pleasurable and thoughtful listen all by themself.
Rating: Summary: Foir the advanced... Review: If you order one of the series, go for the more general of the sets. I got one which was extremely good in it's description of the structure of crystals, 'Volume 3 From Crystal Structure of Magnetism', but went into later elaborate detail on formulae, much done on a chalkboard in the longlost 1960's, which left me in the dust...
Rating: Summary: Audio edutainment doesn't get any better ... Review: What better way to share your enthusiasm of science and physics with your kids than with Richard Feynman's audio physics lectures. Since I started playing them for my six month old son, we have gradually gone through each of the series. In the beginning I had been a little critcal of Richard Feynman. Who was this gravelly voiced man? It's kind of like saying who's Albert Einstein? Well my knowledge grew as both my son and I listened to Richard Feynman and learned not only about this amazing man but also about his love of learning. I can't thank the team enough who has taken the time to put this series together. It is so valuable! So predominate is Richard Feynman at bedtime now that the physics audio lectures are now referred to as Grandpa Feynman's bedtime stories. My son is now 25 months. I highly recommend these audio physics lectures and enthusiastically encourage more physics, science, geology, astrophysics and biology. Edutainment does not get any better than this. Discover Richard Feynman and discover the amazing world around you! Thank you Arnie and Reid
