Amsterdam, North-Holland [Elsevier Science Publishers], 1977. Thick 8vo (22.4 x 15.2 cm). xxv, 668 pp.; several photos, numerous text figures. Original blue printed cloth. = A rarely seen publication including an important contribution by one of the 20th century's best-known scientists, Nobel laureate Richard Phillips Feynman (1918-1988). "Feynman developed a widely used pictorial representation scheme for the mathematical expressions describing the behaviour of subatomic particles, which later became known as Feynman diagrams. During his lifetime, Feynman became one of the best-known scientists in the world. In a 1999 poll of 130 leading physicists worldwide by the British journal Physics World, he was ranked the seventh-greatest physicist of all time. He assisted in the development of the atomic bomb during World War II and became known to a wide public in the 1980s as a member of the Rogers Commission, the panel that investigated the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster. Along with his work in theoretical physics, Feynman has been credited with pioneering the field of quantum computing and introducing the concept of nanotechnology" (Wikipedia). The Les Houches conference, held in the French High Alps, was attended by 50 physicists, and nine lecturers presented nine courses. Feynman presented Course 2. Gauge Theories [pp. 121-206]. Includes a photo of Feynman, lecturing in front of a blackboard. Publisher's archive stamp on front free endpaper recto, weak bump to spine top; otherwise a mint copy.
