Feynman Lectures

Post by 1992 in spaceflight »

Posting this on behalf of one of my students.
Joe Stitz wrote:So, I'm bored in Personal Finance and was wondering what part of the Feynman lectures I should read for Quizbowl. As some know the lectures are separated into volumes and the volumes into chapters, and from what I know Feynman is pretty good at "dumbing things down," for the everyday guy that knows very little physics. From this I figure it could help us convert a physics bonus or something... For once...

Anyways, I would ask Dennis, but Physics =/= Music
