About this copy
This is a Helix Books edition featuring a new introduction by Paul Davies. The text was originally prepared for publication by Robert B. Leighton and Matthew Sands, representing selections from Feynman's famous Lectures on Physics delivered at the California Institute of Technology from 1961 to 1963. The book presents six essential physics topics in Feynman's distinctive accessible style, accompanied by illustrations.
Jacket design by Diane Levy; photograph of Richard Feynman courtesy of the California Institute of Technology Archives. Hardcover with illustrated dust jacket. Red boards with gilt lettering; bright yellow and cream dust jacket.
Condition
- Book
- Very Good – Pages clean and well-preserved. Binding intact and square. Minor age-related wear consistent with a cared-for reading copy.
- Dust jacket
- Good – Colour fading and minor rubbing visible on the red and yellow surfaces, consistent with age and display use. Light creasing and edge wear. Overall attractive presentation despite worn appearance.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
