Six Easy Pieces by Richard P Feynman

For non-scientific readers eager to experience Richard Feynman's individual brand of science, this book and collection of audio CDs, featuring the author's voice, provides six non-technical, introductory lectures from his "Lectures in Physics". These lectures are also available in a package containing the book and 6 audio cassettes (0-201-40956-9), and the book is available individually (0-201-40955-0).
