Story
As Carl Sagan did for astronomy and Brian Green did for cosmology, Walter Lewin takes listeners on a marvelous journey in For the Love of Physics, opening our eyes as never before to the amazing beauty and power with which physics can reveal the hidden workings of the world all around us. "I introduce people to their own world," writes Lewin, "the world they live in and are familiar with but don't approach like a physicist - yet."
- 5 out of 5 stars
For the love of Dr. Lewin this is spectacular!

Many living scientists may not have much formally published in terms of biographical information at this time in their lives. You may need to get creative in what information sources you're reviewing.
