Six Easy Pieces: Essentials of Physics by Its Most Brilliant Teacher

At this point in time this is a book more useful as a text about teaching and explanatory style than physics. If you're interested in learning physics, get something modern. However if you're interested in an insight into Feynman (even if you already know the physics involved) this is very good.

Feels almost like having been on the lecture hall at Caltech. It might be outdated but Feynman's insights into basic physics are brilliant. Brilliant summary but not intelligible for the layman

good book

best "getting started" book for guys who want to know the meaning of it all...
