Product Description

Product Description

Eagerly awaited by scientists and academics worldwide, Perseus Books is pleased to continue its program to publish the complete collection of audio recordings of Feynmans famous Caltech course on which his classic textbook, Lectures on Physics , was based.. }For more than thirty years, Richard P. Feynmans three-volume Lectures on Physics has been known worldwide as the classic resource for students and professionals alike. Ranging from the most basic principles of Newtonian physics through such formidable theories as Einsteins general relativity, superconductivity, and quantum mechanics, Feynmans lectures stand as a monument of clear exposition and deep insight. Responding to the tremendous clamor for the original audio tapes from which the Lectures on Physics were transcribed, Persues Books is releasing Feynmans original recordings, remastered for modern audio equipment and re-organized for cohesiveness and convenience. Timeless, and collectible, these tapes will serve as a comprehensive library of essential physics by a legend in science. }

Having gone through v1&2, this was a lot easier going. My physicist friends telll me that the order of the audiobooks is not the same as the order in the textbooks (which I can beleive). Richard Feynnman's charisma is not lessened by these tapes, I cerainly haven't heard anything better, but if you don't already know classical theory backwards and forwards then don't listen to these lectures hoping to revise for year 1&2 exams as it is all from a quantum perspective.

Use with the Feynman Lectures (Red Books) - 3 Volume Set 28 July 2005
By Biomed Researcher - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
As other reviewers have stated this series has a few problems. The first is that the audio was copied from audio tapes as one long CD track without partitions which is a huge pain. The lectures are also all jumbled up into "topic areas", and the listener is left to align them to the chapters in the Feynman Lectures on Physics. The sections to which the commentator on the CD's refers are in these books (ISBN: 0201021153, or even better get the hardcover). If you are learning physics for the first time, you definitely want the books to go along with at the same time.

5 Stars for sure but here is a caveat before you buy 4 Mar 2005
By Raghuram Krishnaswamy - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio CD
There is no way you can follow these lectures UNLESS you have the books (R.P Feynman lectures on Physics Vols 1-3) in front of you or maybe you can follow them if you are smarter than RPF himself, which is unlikely (otherwise i'd be reading your book). Anyway, the reason for this is there is a lot of formulae and explaining happening on the black board and RPF talks pretty fast with his sharp brooklyn accent. So, have the book and chapter he is talking about in front of you and pay attention to what he is saying and frequently pause to digest what he has said and you'll appreciate the lectures more. It may not be possible to understand everything he says in his books, let alone in the audio, which makes it difficukt understanding when you are not in possession of his books. But the CD's are a blast to listen to, EXCEPT the people who produced the CD's should be impaled on some sharp object because each CD has ONE track from start to finish. So to go back or skip sections is a real pain.

If you liked the book then try this...... 7 Dec 2000
By Tim McDonald - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Audio Cassette
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.
