Long popular in print among connoisseurs of scientific texts, the revered lectures of Nobel laureate Dr. Richard Feynman have now "gone live" on the web, granting worldwide access to the teaching of one of physics' most eminent minds. Do enjoy them.

Add the Landau-Lifshitz series on theoretical physics and you could really learn something.

This is wonderful. Bookmarked. Will I ever read more than a couple? Maybe not. But I feel somehow much wealthier having them available at a click of the mouse.

My freshman Physics profs could care less about teaching freshman physics majors. He also was a lousy communicator. We all used the Feynman Lectures to get through that year.

Part of the genius of people like Feynman ( and T Sowell) is taking complex ideas and expressing them so that others can understand them.

The Kahn academy model - get a brilliant lecture on video, then have someone who can answer questions on any sticking points.
