The nature of physical laws (The Character of Physical Law) (Category Physics)
In continuation of the physical theme, I cannot but recommend Richard Feynman’s book The Character of Physical Laws, based on his famous Feynman lectures on physics. 1964 years. The book is very simple and understandable, but it talks about complex things - it's Feynman's special gift to explain everything literally on your fingers. It is a pity that I did not read this book in school, because before entering the lyceum 10 In class, I was taught physics so wretched that it didn't resonate with my soul:) This book instills a sense of beauty in relation to complex systems based on simplicity and elegance:) As a confirmation, I will cite a quote that ends the chapter "In Search of New Laws" and the entire book:
Why does nature allow us to guess from the observation of one part of it what is happening everywhere? Of course, this is not a scientific question; I do not know how to answer it correctly, and the answer is equally unscientific: it seems to me that the reason is that nature is simple, and therefore beautiful.
