About the book
Life and studies of the brilliant Richard Feynman - from the mouth of one of the best biographers of our time.
Creator of quantum theories, a bright young leader of the atomic bomb project, the inventor of Feynman’s universal diagram, a passionate lover of the Bongo game, a wonderful storyteller Richard Feynman was the most outstanding, destructive stereotypes and an influential physicist of our time. From the incomplete theory of waves and particles, in the 1940s he created an understandable tool that any physicist could use. He had an incredible ability to penetrate the essence of the problem. Among scientists who are based on traditional ideas, in need of heroes as passionately as in their overthrow, his name gained a special brilliance. He was called a genius.
He remained the central figure of physics for forty years, led by post -war science. Forty years that turned the doctrine of matter and energy and directed it along an unpredictable gloomy path. His work united all existing phenomena in the field of light, radio, magnetic radiation and electricity into a perfect concept. For her, Feynman received the Nobel Prize. His subsequent achievements were no less significant.
At the heart of the process of opening Feynman of new, understandable only a few, areas of science was his idea of the interaction of particles. He constantly searched for new riddles. He did not make differences between the authoritative issues of physics of elementary particles and modest trivial problems, which seemed to belong to the science of the last century. No one else has been working on such a wide range of tasks since Einstein.
Feinman brought physics to a fundamentally new level, made it a prestigious science, which in itself is many times superior to all its scientific merits.
After the death of Feynman, several of his colleagues tried to write epitaphs. The Schwinger, with whom they were once rivals, chose the following words: "The honest man, the owner of the greatest intuition of our time. The brightest example of what can happen if you dare not dance to someone else"s pipe. " The science that Feynman helped to create was completely unique. She grew up as the greatest of his achievements, although sometimes she forced physicists to follow the tanning path of the dark tunnel. After his death, Feynman left something else. Perhaps the greatest heritage is a lesson about what to know for sure at least something in our age of the most vague doubts.
