Feynman. Paul Dirac, one of the most important physicists of the 20th century, was a professor at the University of Cambridge, England. He held the chair that once was occupied by Isaac Newton. When he died in 1984, his college, St John's College in Cambridge, endowed an annual lecture to be held in Cambridge in his memory. The first of these lectures was given by Richard Feynman. Dirac was perhaps most famous for his prediction of antimatter, and in his lecture Feynman discusses the physical reality underlying Dirac's prediction. A book accompanies this tape which contains the transparencies used in the lecture (in Feynman's own handwriting), and short written pieces by Lawrence Krauss, John Gribbon, and Ralph Leighton. Profits from the sale of this video benefit cancer research. Appx. 70 minutes, the video was made by an amature videographer (and so not of the highest quality), however this tape is highly enjoyable in educational. Rights are granted for public performances and use of the transparencies in a classroom setting. Available in NTSC VHS for $30.00 U.S. or PAL VHS for $45.00. Please add $3 shipping to North America, $5 elsewhere. Credit Cards (Mastercard, Visa, Discover) accepted. Checks accepted if drawn on a U.S. bank and in U.S. dollars. No purchase orders can be accepted. For more information or to order, email eslone@scs-intl.com or call (703) 461-7550. ___________________________________________________________________ J.
