Fun learning lectures on Physics ...

What better way to share your enthusiasm of science and physics with your kids than with Richard Feynman's audio physics lectures. Since I started playing them for my six month old son, we have gradually gone through each of the series.In the beginning I had been a little critcal of Richard Feynman. Who was this gravelly voiced man? It's kind of like saying who's Albert Einstein? Well my knowledge grew as both my son and I listened to Richard Feynman and learned not only about this amazing man but also about his love of learning.I can't thank the team enough who has taken the time to put this series together. It is so valuable! So predominate is Richard Feynman at bedtime now that the physics audio lectures are now referred to as Grandpa Feynman's bedtime stories. My son is now 25 months.I highly recommend these audio physics lectures and enthusiastically encourage more physics, science, geology, astrophysics and biology.Edutainment does not get any better than this. Discover Richard Feynman and discover the amazing world around you!Thank you Arnie and Reid

Feynman at his best!

Although this is volume 5 of the lectures on tape, it is his earliest audio lectures. This set is the one to have! In this set, Dr. Feynman covers the basics of kinematics. He discusses energy, momentum, distance, and work. Whether you are a physics student, eager to learn from the best, or just an interested amateur, Feynman puts these fundamentals into sparkling clear terms, and you can gain a true understanding of these important aspects of physics. My recommendation is to have volume I of the "Big Red Books" out and put these tapes on. You will be amazed at how much you can learn from any of them. If you can only get one of the (so far) 6, this is the one to get!
