- Book Review,
by Richard Phillips Feynman

Book Description
The latest volume of recorded lectures by the world's greatest physics teacher. The next two volumes in the acclaimed Feynman Lectures on Physics audio series deal with the fundamentals of classical and quantum physics. These lectures by the late Richard P. Feynman were originally delivered to his physics students at Caltech and later fashioned by the author into his classic textbook Lectures on Physics. Volume 9 (Basic Concepts in Classical Physics) contains sections on Time and Distance, Vectors, Characteristics of Force, Space-Time, Rotation in Two Dimensions, and Algebra. Volume 10 (Basic Concepts in Quantum Physics) includes a discussion of Quantum Behavior, The Relation of Wave and Particle Viewpoints, The Dependence of Amplitudes on Time, The Hamilton Matrix, and Operators.

Book Info
A set of six audio cassettes of the physics lectures of Richard Feynman on classical physics. Topics covered includes time and distance, vectors, characteristics of force, space-time, rotation in two dimensions, and algebra.
