5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Introductory Physics Book - Now and Forever!, 8 Jan 1997
By A Customer
I was fortunate to use these as an undergraduate in 1964 when they first came out. My Physics professor, Dr Carl Bailey, worked with Feynman on the Manhatten project and had the forsight to use it in our class. We were fortunate to have early access to this series which is just as exciting and informative today as it was in 1964. I often refer to these classics when I really want to understand a concept. The index is excellent! When you really want the "bottom line" on a physical phenomenon, Feynman's index will lead you through pages filled with gems of understanding you'll soon find yourself sharing with your colleagues and friends. I've read plenty of other Physics Books, but none that go to the "next level" like Feynman to relate concepts with examples that are so fascinating you can't help but understand them and want to share them with others. Feynman truly lives on through his books and videos! Dr. Olaf O. Storaasli, NASA Langley, Hampton, VA

5.0 out of 5 stars These books explain the whole of Physics., 3 Jul 2003
By Matt (Sheffield, Yorkshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lectures on Physics (Hardcover)
After a long day ignoring lectures talk about mind-numbingly boring Physics topics, turn to these books enjoy reading and understanding the same topics. These books will explain Physics in a way that reminds you why you took it in the first place, Feynman's style and enthusiasm for the subject shines through and is highly infectious. If you know basic Calculus, then these books explain pretty much the whole of Physics. Ignore the recommended texts and get these instead.

5.0 out of 5 stars BUY PAPERBACK!, 6 May 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Lectures on Physics (Hardcover)
If you're thinking of buying Feynman's Lectures on Physics (which you should be), then I would recommend buying the paperback versions. To take nothing away from Feynman himself, I found the quality of the hardback set of three books to be poor. The ink on the front of the books easily comes off, and the binding is poor also. I should know - I have tried to buy three sets already, and all of them have been damaged, with pages glued together and other faults. I just think that the publisher has not done a very good job - my advice is buy the paperbacks if you want a lasting set of these excellent lectures.
