It was Feynman's outrageous and scintillating method of teaching that earned him legendary status among students and professors of physics. From 1961 to 1963, Feynman delivered a series of lectures at the California Institute of Technology that revolutionized the teaching of physics. In Six Not-So-Easy Pieces, taken from these famous lectures, Feynman delves into one of the most revolutionary discoveries in twentieth-century physics: Einstein's theory of relativity. The idea that the flow of time is not constant, that the mass of an object depends on its velocity, and that the speed of light is a constant no matter what the motion of the observer, at first seemed shocking to scientists and laymen alike. But as Feynman shows, these tricky ideas are not merely dry principles of physics, but things of beauty and elegance. No one—not even Einstein himself—explained these difficult, anti-intuitive concepts more clearly, or with more verve and gusto, than Richard Feynman. Filled with wonderful examples and clever illustrations, Six Not-So-Easy Pieces is the ideal introduction to fundamentals of physics by one of the most admired and accessible physicists of all times. “There is no better explanation for the scientifically literate layman.”—The Washington Post Book World

"The whole thing was basically an experiment," Richard Feynman said late in his career, looking back on the origins of his lectures. The experiment turned out to be hugely successful, spawning publications that have remained definitive and introductory to physics for decades. Ranging from the basic principles of Newtonian physics through such formidable theories as general relativity and quantum mechanics, Feynman's lectures stand as a monument of clear exposition and deep insight. Timeless and collectible, the lectures are essential reading, not just for students of physics but for anyone seeking an introduction to the field from the inimitable Feynman.

"Sei pezzi facili" è un'introduzione fondamentale al mondo della fisica, scritta da uno dei suoi più grandi insegnanti. Richard Feynman, con la sua brillantezza scientifica e la curiosità infinita, guida il lettore attraverso i concetti basilari della fisica, come atomi, energia, forza, la relazione tra fisica e altre scienze, la teoria della gravitazione e il comportamento quantistico. Presentando idee complesse in termini semplificati e comprensibili, utilizzando esempi come proiettili, onde sulla spiaggia e i mattoncini di Dennis the Menace, il libro esplora come funziona il mondo. Feynman riesce a rendere accessibili argomenti altrimenti difficili, stimolando la curiosità e l'interesse per la scienza. Con il suo approccio unico, "Sei pezzi facili" si propone come una lettura indispensabile per chiunque desideri comprendere le basi della fisica.

Die Bände 1-3 der Feynman Vorlesungen sind als Set erhältlich. Band 1 behandelt Mechanik, Thermodynamik und Physik der Strahlung und bietet einen umfassenden Einblick in die Physik, ohne zwischen klassischer und moderner Physik zu trennen. Feynman vermittelt die Inhalte verständlich und ansprechend, ideal für Selbststudium und Vorlesungen.

Band 3 der Feynman Vorlesungen ist der Quantenmechanik gewidmet und bietet jedem Studenten eine hervorragende Einfuhrung in das Thema; auch Berufstatige in Forschung und Entwicklung konnen mit Hilfe des Buches rasch die Kenntnisse der Quantenmechanik auffrischen."

Pátý díl Feynmanových přednášek objasňuje základní myšlenky kvantové mechaniky.

This three-volume work was originally designed for a two-year introductory physics course given at the California Institute of Technology--a course designed to take advantage of students' increasing mathematical prowess and to provide a more comprehensive view of modern-day physics. The volumes are an edited version of Richard Feynman's lectures, taped and transcribed specifically for the books. It was a rigorous undertaking that resulted in a classic reference work for all physics students, teachers, and researchers. Feynman's effective classroom style remains intact in these volumes, a valuable work by a remarkable educator. The three-volume commemorative issue is hardbound and packaged in a specially-designed slipcase. The lectures are also available in a student paperbound edition.

This book features a collection of lectures by the renowned physicist Richard P. Feynman, offering insights into quantum mechanics. It's ideal for physics students and anyone interested in a compelling introduction to this essential area of science.
