SIX EASY PIECES : ESSENTIAL OF PHYSICS EXPLAINED BY ITS MOST BRILLIANT TEACHER BY RICHARD B FEYMAN AND ROBERT B LEIGHTON "If one book was all that could be passed on to the next generation of scientists it would undoubtedly have to be  Six Easy Pieces. "- John Gribbin,  New Scientist It was Richard Feynman's outrageous and scintillating method of teaching that earned him legendary status among students and professors of physics. From 1961 to 1963, Feynman delivered a series of lectures at the California Institute of Technology that revolutionized the teaching of physics around the world.  Six Easy Pieces , taken from these famous Lectures on Physics, represent the most accessible material from the series. In these classic lessons, Feynman introduces the general reader to the following topics: atoms, basic physics, energy, gravitation, quantum mechanics, and the relationship of physics to other topics. With his dazzling and inimitable wit, Feynman presents each discussion...

THE FOURTH INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION  BY KLAUS SCHWAUB We all studied the First Industrial Revolution at school. In which the steam engine patented by James Watt in 1769  played an important role.
