A rare signed set of the important lectures Feynman gave at the California Institute of Technology, 1961-1963. Feynman received a share of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965 for his contributions to the development of quantum electrodynamics. This set belonged to the noted physicist Peter D. Zimmerman, recently purchased at the sale of his estate. Each hardcover volume has Zimmerman's neatly printed name in ink on the front free endpaper, with his dates of purchase in 1964 and 1965. Zimmerman (1941-2021) was an American nuclear physicist, arms control expert, and former Chief Scientist of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. At his death, he was Emeritus Professor of Science and Security at King's College London. He graduated from Stanford in 1963 with a BS, a Filosofie Licentiat degree at Lund University in 1967 and a Ph.D from Stanford in 1969.
An uncommon first printing set of one of the most popular physics texts of all time, a compilation of the Nobel laureate's lectures at Caltech. Scarce signed.
