Feynman’s Tips On Physics - A Problem-Solving Supplement To the Feynman Lectures On Physics is a textbook compiled from Richard P. Feynman’s lectures to undergraduate students of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). The lectures were based on a variety of subjects, including mathematics, quantum physics, Newtonian physics, mechanics, and electromagnetism. The lectures, given over a span of many years, were collected in several volumes which ended up in the form of a book series. This particular edition presents four, previously unpublished lectures given by Feynman to help students in their exam preparations. Developed from a problem-solving perspective, it was published in 2008 by Pearson. Marked by Feynman’s characteristic humour and his witty insight into the field of physics, the book contains several practical applications, examples, and exercises to aid the students. It also gives an interesting glimpse into the origin of the lectures and the subsequent book series.
