Richard Feynman: The Douglas Robb Memorial Lectures

From the Vega Science Trust:

A set of four priceless archival recordings from the University of Auckland (New Zealand) of the outstanding Nobel prize-winning physicist Richard Feynman - arguably the greatest science lecturer ever. Although the recording is of modest technical quality the exceptional personal style and unique delivery shine through.

Feynman diagrams and the intricacies of particle interaction.
Feynman_4_1_100x100 New Queries: The Douglas Robb Memorial Lectures - Part 4
