Feynman's Lost Lecture
David Goodstein
Discover the brilliance of Feynman, one of the century's greatest physicists, in Feynman's Lost Lecture. Rescued from obscurity, this book and CD include a breathtaking lecture titled "The Motion of the Planets Around the Sun", which explains why planets orbit the sun elliptically using nothing more advanced than high-school geometry. David and Judith Goodstein provide a beautifully written short memoir of life with Feynman, meticulous commentary on the lecture, and the exciting story of their effort to chase down one of Feynman's most original and scintillating lectures.
