  • Conversations on the Dark Secrets of Physics

    by Edward Teller, Wendy Teller, Wilson Talley ...
    In Conversations on the Dark Secrets of Physics, Teller returns to the fundamentals of physics to share with readers his unbridled enthusiasm for the world of physical reality -- from the nature of molecules to quantum mechanics and superconductors, from the elementary laws of thermodynamics to how planets, asteroids, and comets develop their orbits. By simplifying the math and forgoing the often ... Read more

  • Quantum Physics: From Illusion to Reality

    by gaoshan ...
    The double-slit experiment has been widely discussed since the founding of quantum mechanics. Nearly all textbooks on quantum mechanics use the experiment to illustrate the wave-particle duality of light and matter. According to Richard Feynman, the double-slit experiment contains the only mystery of quantum mechanics. After we have unveiled the mystery, we will be able to understand quantum ... Read more

    by Robert Piccioni ...
    Series Book 1 - Everyone's Guide to the Feynman Lectures on Physics
    Feynman Simplified gives mere mortals access to the fabled Feynman Lectures on Physics.Quantum mechanics is rarely taught well in introductory physics courses, largely because this challenging subject was not well taught to many of today’s instructors. Few had the opportunity to learn quantum mechanics from some who understood it profoundly; almost none learned it from one of its creators. Here ... Read more

  • Feynman Lectures On Gravitation

    by Richard Feynman ...
    Series series Frontiers in Physics
    The Feynman Lectures on Gravitation are based on notes prepared during a course on gravitational physics that Richard Feynman taught at Caltech during the 1962-63 academic year. For several years prior to these lectures, Feynman thought long and hard about the fundamental problems in gravitational physics, yet he published very little. These lectures represent a useful record of his viewpoints and ... Read more

  • The Theory of the Relativity of Motion (Illustrated)

    by Richard C. Tolban ...
    The Theory of the Relativity of Motion In the field of physical science, there was a widespread feeling that the days of adventurous discovery had passed forever, and the conservative physicist was only too happy to devote his life to the measurement to the sixth decimal place of quantities whose significance for physical theory was already an old story. The passage of time, however, has ... Read more
