Feynman Answers the Question: "Why?"
Feynman on Quantum Electrodynamics (QED)
Richard Feynman gave a series of talks in New Zealand in 1979
explaining how quantum electrodynamics (for which he received the Nobel
Prize in 1965) describes and accounts for the behavior of light and
matter (well, electrons) from an exclusively quantum (particle)
perspective. These lectures were a dry run for the inaugral Mautner
Memorial Lecture at UCLA that he delivered a few years later and then
published in book form (QED: The Strange Theory of Light and Matter). For the non-Nobel Laureate general audience (that's us) - a treat to watch!
