"man of science". A magnificent speaker, he turned each of his lectures into an exciting intellectual game. His talks attracted not only students and colleagues but also people simply fascinated by physics.

In these lectures, the celebrated physicist talks about quantum electrodynamics, – a theory in the creation of which he himself participated, – in a simple and accessible language understandable even to the ordinary reader.
It is no wonder that even about the very first, Princeton edition of "QED," critics wrote: "A book that fully conveys the captivating and witty style of Feynman, making quantum electrodynamics not only understandable but also entertaining!"
