Dear Feynman fan,
Thanks to the University of Auckland and the
Feynman family, Richard P. Feynman's lectures on
Quantumelectrodynamics (QED) for a lay audience
are now available. The NTSC edition is now ready!
It's on four VHS cassettes. Total time is about 6 hours,
which includes some questions and answers after each lecture.
(In the fall, I hope to make a closed-caption edition
for non-native speakers of Feynmanese.)
Right now, there are several options:
For the US and Canada:
1) $59 for one set delivered by air mail or priority mail
(2-3 days, once I've processed your order).
2) $55 for one set delivered by 4th class or surface mail
(about ten days, once I've processed your order).
3) $40 for additional sets of lectures sent at the same time.
***For the rest of the world, the price is $59 for one set delivered by
surface mail; $75 for one set delivered by air mail.
Please make check payable to Friends of Tuva and mail to:
Friends of Tuva
Box 70021
Pasadena CA 91117 USA
For non-US orders, please send an international postal money order,
or a check drawn on a US bank.
(Bank must have a US address on the check.)
Packaging options:
a) Four separate plastic cases (sleeves), so your tapes can
fit into a cabinet that holds other VHS tapes;
b) One 9" by 12" by 2 1/4" holder that looks like a notebook;
holds all four tapes and protects them better.
***Please indicate which package you would prefer. The price is
the same for both.(Option b will be ready June 21.)
If I do not receive a preference, you'll get option a.
Please note! These videos are in NTSC (US standard), used in
the US, Canada, Mexico, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, and elsewhere--
but NOT in Europe, Russia, or British Commonwealth countries
(unless you have a multi-standard player and TV).
For PAL (UK standard), please contact Prof. John Dudley in
New Zealand: jmd@phyvc.auckland.ac.nz
Thank you for your interest. Enjoy the lectures!
