Feynman's Lectures on Physics. Volume II

American physicist Richard Feynman is one of the greatest scientists of the 20th century, a Nobel Prize laureate in physics. At one time, the professors at the California Institute of Technology contemplated how to restructure the physics course to make... it more engaging and modern. Richard Feynman enthusiastically embraced this idea and agreed to deliver an authorial two-year course of lectures on general physics, but only once. The university, for which this event became historic, organized the recording of the lectures, and then a team of physicists prepared a multi-volume edition that is still considered one of the best introductory courses on physics. This volume includes sections on Radiation. Waves. Quanta and Kinetics. Heat. Sound.
