    Last fall, we let you know that Caltech and The Feynman Lectures Website joined forces to create an online edition of The Feynman Lectures on Physics. They started with Volume 1. And now they’ve followed up with Volume 2 and Volume 3, making the collection complete.

    First presented in the early 1960s at Caltech by the Nobel Prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman, the lectures were eventually turned into a book by Feynman, Robert B. Leighton, and Matthew Sands. The text went on to become arguably the most popular physics book ever written, selling more than 1.5 million copies in English, and getting translated into a dozen languages.

    The new online edition makes The Feynman Lectures on Physics available in HTML5. The text “has been designed for ease of reading on devices of any size or shape,” and you can zoom into text, figures and equations without degradation. Dive right into the lectures here. And if you’d prefer to see Feynman (as opposed to read Feynman), we would encourage you to watch ‘The Character of Physical Law,’ Feynman’s  seven-part lecture series recorded at Cornell in 1964.

    The Feynman Lectures on Physics is now listed in our collections of Free eBooks and Free Textbooks.

    The lectures were intended by Feynman as an introduction, not to the fundamental laws of nature, but to the very nature of such laws.

    They are also a historical record of Feynman's 1961–64 undergraduate physics lectures, a course required of all Caltech freshmen and sophomores regardless of their majors.


    Imagine studying this instead of attending mosque or madrassah or praying five times a day?

    Everyone should read this, this is such a great introduction to Physics.

    The Feynman lectures on Physics were great. It helped me get a different perspective on the stuff I knew.

    Of course, it lacks any exercises and strays away from alot of the math and can't be substitiuted for a course textbook, but still excellent sources if you wish to grasp the basic concepts in Physics.

    Sounds interesting, and they're on YouTube as well. At least some are. Means I can listen you them whilst driving Smiley
