درس‌های فاینمن در فیزیک: شمارهٔ یادبود جلد ۱: عمدتاً مکانیک، تابش و گرما

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.

these Are The Lectures In Physics That I Gave Last Year And The Year Before To The Freshman And Sophomore Classes At Caltech. The Lectures Are, Of Course, Not Verbatim-they Have Been Edited, Sometimes Extensively And Sometimes Less So. The Lectures Form Only Part Of The Complete Course. The Whole Group Of 180 Students Gathered In A Big Lecture Room Twice A Week To Hear These Lectures And Then They Broke Up Into Small Groups Of 15 Or 20 Students In Recitation Sections Under The Guidance Of A Teaching Assistant. In Addition, There Was A Laboratory Session Once A Week.

T[hese] books [are] based upon a course of lectures in introductory physics given by Prof. R.P. Feynman at the California Institute of Technology during the academic year 1961-1962; it covers the first year of the two year introductory course taken by all Caltech freshmen and sophormores, and was followed in 1962-63 by a similar series covering the second year
