The Breakthrough (Vignettes in Physics) by G. Venkataraman
English | June 1994 | ISBN: 0863114520 | 198 Pages | djvu | 1,5 MB

This book and others in; this series written! by me ase mspired by the memory of my son, Suresh who left this; world soon after completing school. Suresh and I often used to discuss^ physics, It was then that I introduced him to the celebrated Feynman Lectures. Hans Bethe has; described Feynman as the most original scientist of this century. To that perhaps may fee added; the statement that Feynman was also the most scintillating teacher of physics this century.The Feynman Lectures, are great but they are at the textbook level and meant for serious reading; Moreover, they are a bit expensive, at least for the1 average Indian* student. It seemed to. me that there was scope for small: books on; diverse topics in physics which would stimulate interest, making at least some of our young: students take up later a serious study of physics and reach for the Feynman. as. well; as the Landau classics.
