Summary: Who needs hallucinatory drugs when we've got quantum physics
Review: This book will absolutely blow you away! If you're an armchair physicist and you thought you understood the universe, prepare to be blown away! The physical universe is NOTHING like you've ever imagined. If you thought Star Trek was way out there, you ain't seen nothin' yet! And the strangest part of all, is this branch of physics has stood up to scrutiny more than any other idea in the history of science! It's just plain freaky, but real!The only reason I don't give this book 5 stars is because the author committed a massive science flaw: He said, "There are no gears or pullies inside these things. Don't even look for them." Imagine that! A scientist telling you to do no more research for further answers! That cost him a full star in my review. Put this book on the top 10 reading list of all time! When you're done, search for information about faster than light transmission, quantum entanglement, and the real science of teleportation. Also, required reading: Alber Einstein's "Relativity, the Special and the General Theory" (or is it the General and the Special Theory?). You can't read one without the other. In my opinion, they make a complete set.

Summary: Best intro book on QED
Review: This is the best book for the layman on the difficult subject of quantum mechanics. I've read much more technical works on the subject, but none of them can match Feynman's clear and concise explanations of the fascinating and paradoxical world of quantum mechanics. Feynman had a gift for explaining difficult physics concepts to the non-physicist, and this book is perhaps the best example of his ability to do this. Using primarily spatial concepts, visualizations, and diagrams rather than advanced math, Feynman clearly illustrates and explains many of the fundamental aspects of QED in a way that the non-specialist can grasp. A true classic in the field, and one that hasn't been equalled since in its clear and concise treatment of the subject. All in all, a great book from both a great physicist and great teacher.
