Publisher's Synopsis

In this popular classic, Nobel Prize winner Richard Feynman offers an overview of selected physical laws and gathers their common features into one broad principle. He maintains at the outset that the importance of a physical law is not 'how clever we are to have found it out, but how clever nature is to pay attention to it.' After establishing what is most remarkable in nature, Professor Feynman develops his own analysis of the process and future of scientific discovery. This audiobook has special value as a demonstration of the mind in action, in this case, one of the most pre-eminent and imaginative minds of modern physics. Feynman's enlightened approach, his wit, and his enthusiasm make this a memorable exposition of the scientist's craft.
