Lecture 1 - Law of Gravitation | The Character of Physical Law | Richard Feynman
In these Messenger Lectures on "The Character of Physical Law," ...
In these Messenger Lectures on "The Character of Physical Law," originally delivered at Cornell University Nov. 9-19, 1964, physicist Richard Feynman offers an overview of selected physical laws and gathers their common features into one broad principle of invariance. 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," and tends his discussions toward a final exposition of the elegance and simplicity of all scientific laws.From 1945 to 1950, Feynman taught theoretical physics at Cornell, where he met Hans Bethe and became involved in the Manhattan Project. He went on to accept a professorship at Caltech and was named co-winner of the 1965 Nobel Prize in physics for his contribution to the renormalization of quantum electrodynamics.
