Six Easy Pieces

Essentials of Physics Explained by Its Most Brilliant Teacher
Book • 2011
Six Easy Pieces is a collection of six lectures from Richard Feynman's celebrated Lectures on Physics, designed to introduce the general reader to the basics of physics.

These lectures, delivered at the California Institute of Technology from 1961 to 1963, revolutionized the teaching of physics.

Feynman covers topics including atoms, basic physics, energy, gravitation, and quantum mechanics, presenting each discussion with minimal jargon and using wonderful examples and clever illustrations.

The book is praised for its clarity and accessibility, making it an ideal primer for both nonscientists and those interested in understanding the fundamental principles of physics.
