书籍简介

《费恩曼物理学讲义补编》是对于著名物理学教材《费恩曼物理学讲义》的补充。

通过马修·桑兹的回忆以及对理查德·费恩曼、罗伯特·莱顿和罗丘斯·沃格特的采访，《费恩曼物理学讲义补编》生动地呈现了《费恩曼物理学讲义》的成书历程以及加州理工学院的那段岁月。

《费恩曼物理学讲义补编》还收录了《费恩曼物理学讲义》的遗珠篇章一费恩曼在加州理工学院讲解过，但由于当时讲义资料遗失而未收录进《费恩曼物理学讲义》的章节。

为了对讲义内容有更深刻的理解，书后提供了精彩的习题。

Feynman's Tips on Physics is a delightful collection of Richard P. Feynman's insights and an essential companion to his legendary Feynman Lectures on Physics With characteristic flair, insight, and humour, Feynman discusses topics physics students often struggle with and offers valuable tips on addressing them. Included here are three lectures on problem-solving and a lecture on inertial guidance omitted from The Feynman Lectures on Physics . An enlightening memoir by Matthew Sands and oral history interviews with Feynman and his Caltech colleagues provide firsthand accounts of the origins of Feynman's landmark lecture series. Also included are incisive and illuminating exercises originally developed to supplement The Feynman Lectures on Physics , by Robert B. Leighton and Rochus E. Vogt. Feynman's Tips on Physics was co-authored by Michael A. Gottlieb and Ralph Leighton to provide students, teachers, and enthusiasts alike an opportunity to learn physics from some of its greatest teachers, the creators of The Feynman Lectures on Physics.

作者简介

费恩曼（R．P．Feynman），1918年生于布鲁克林区，1942年在普林斯顿获得博士学位。第二次世界大战期间在洛斯阿拉莫斯，尽管当时他还很年轻，但已在曼哈顿计划中发挥了重要作用。以后，他在康奈尔大学和加利福尼亚理工学院任教。1965年，因他在量子电动力学方面的工作和朝永振一郎及施温格（J．Schwinger）同获诺贝尔物理学奖。

Richard Feynman was, until his death in 1988, the most famous physicist in the world. Only an infinitesimal part of the general population could understand his mathematical physics, but his outgoing and sunny personality, his gift for exposition, his habit of playing the bongo drums, and his testimony to the Presidential Commission on the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster turned him into a celebrity.

Freeman Dyson, of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey, called him 'the most original mind of his generation', while in its obituary The New York Times described him as 'arguably the most brilliant, iconoclastic and influential of the postwar generation of theoretical physicists'.
