The Feynman Lectures on Physics books in publication order
3 books
Mainly Electromagnetism and Matter
by Richard P. Feynman
2011
The second volume of Feynman's lectures develops electric and magnetic fields, Maxwell's equations, and electromagnetic waves. It also examines circuits and the behavior of matter, connecting mathematical descriptions with topics such as magnetism, crystal structure, and elasticity.
Mainly Mechanics, Radiation, and Heat
by Richard P. Feynman
2011
The first volume introduces physics through mechanics, relativity, radiation, and thermal phenomena. Feynman's lectures connect foundational laws with examples from motion, optics, statistical mechanics, and thermodynamics, emphasizing how physical ideas explain the behavior of the natural world.
Quantum Mechanics
by Richard P. Feynman
2011
The third volume explores quantum behavior through probability amplitudes, interference, and atomic systems. Topics include the double-slit experiment, spin, two-state systems, and hydrogen, using these examples to develop the mathematical framework and unfamiliar physical principles of quantum mechanics.
