Is Feynman Lectures difficult?

The Feynman Lectures are highly sophisticated, but they are very difficult to grasp without a more normal foundation in more normal texts, such as Purcell for Electricity & Magnetism; Taylor & Wheeler for Spacetime Physics.

How long does it take to finish Feynman Lectures?

It could easily take one year OR MORE to digest all three volumes.

Are Feynman Lectures useful for JEE?

Good starting till end. But not compatible for jee syllabus. For that we can refer other books. But overall a complete book for physics lovers.

Where can I listen to Feynman Lectures?

The California Institute of Technology
The California Institute of Technology in conjunction with the Feynman Lectures Website recently completed a years-long effort to upload the entire set of Richard Feynman’s classic Lectures on Physics for the public to access for free.

Was Feynman a good student?

Feynman began to teach himself about elementary calculus with books borrowed from the library to supplement what he learned from Public School 39. He applied to college with his perfect grades in maths and science. However, his poor grades in other subjects and his Jewish background caused problems.

What did Richard Feynman study at Caltech?

While at Caltech Feynman continued his work at the leading edge of theoretical physics, making important contributions to the study of liquid helium, particle physics, and later quantum chromodynamics. He also began his distinguished career as a teacher and lecturer.

What is this edition of the Feynman Lectures for?

This edition has been designed for ease of reading on devices of any size or shape; text, figures and equations can all be zoomed without degradation.3 Volume I mainly mechanics, radiation, and heat Volume II mainly electromagnetism and matter Volume III quantum mechanics Feynman’s Messenger Lectures

Are the lectures in physics at Caltech verbatim?

In this pdf book, there 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.

When did Richard Feynman donate his papers to the library?

The first group of papers, now boxes 1-20 of the collection, was donated by Richard Feynman himself beginning in 1968, with additions later. It contains materials dating from about 1933 to 1970.
