With his characteristic eyebrow-raising behavior, Richard P. Feynman once provoked the wife of a Princeton dean to remark, "Surely you're joking, Mr. Feynman!" But the many scientific and personal achievements of this Nobel Prize-winning physicist are no laughing matter. Here, woven with his scintillating views on modern science, Feynman relates the defining moments of his accomplished life.

In this collection of lectures that Richard Feynman originally gave in 1963, unpublished during his lifetime, the Nobel Prize-winning physicist discusses several of the ultimate questions of science. What is the nature of the tension between science and religious faith? Why does uncertainty play such a crucial role in the scientific imagination? Is this really a scientific age?

深く考えることをしなくなった現代人を覚醒させる「安岡人間学」の入門書

政財官界の指南役が記した「最高の教養書」
東洋の哲学から学び、日本人としての道を模索し続けた安岡正篤は、生前ほとんど表に出ず、知る人ぞ知る存在だった。しかし没後、著書や講演録が相次いで出版され、現在においても己の生き方や国の在り方を真剣に考える人々に熱く支持され、深い感動と人生の指針を与えている。
本オーディオブックは、戦後間もなくから昭和52年頃までの間に、氏が諸方面から請われて行った講演録が中心の「新装版 運命を創る」を音声化したものである。悩みや迷いの多い浮き世で、自分は如何にあるべきか、またどのような基準を持ち、いかなる方向へ進むべきかなど、貴重な示唆や指標を与えてくれるだろう。

Freddy Thresher has a problem: a really, really, big problem. He's the only one in his class who hasn't lost a tooth! All of the other students in Mrs. Wushy's first grade have signed their names on the Big Tooth, and Freddy's determined to get his name on it, too. So when Max "The Meanie" Sellars calls Freddy a baby, Freddy decides he's going to lose that tooth one way or another, even if it means getting punched in the face at recess, and even bigger trouble, with Mom!

Perhaps the greatest physicist of the second half of the 20th century, Richard Feynman changed the way we think about quantum mechanics, the most perplexing of all physical theories. Here Lawrence M. Krauss, himself a theoretical physicist and best-selling author, offers a unique scientific biography: a rollicking narrative coupled with clear and novel expositions of science at the limits.

E. H. Gombrich's world history, an international best seller now available in English for the first time, is a text dominated not by dates and facts but by the sweep of experience across the centuries, a guide to humanity's achievements, and an acute witness to its frailties.
