Summary
Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman maintains that the importance of a physical law is not how clever we are to have found it, but how clever nature is to pay attention to it. After establishing what is most remarkable in nature, he develops his own analysis of the process. Feynman’s enlightened approach, his wit and his enthusiasm make this a memorable exposition of the scientist’s craft. 2 cassettes.
