Quantum Electrodynamics (Advanced Book Classics).  The aim of this classic work by Richard Feynman is to present the main results and calculational procedures of quantum electrodynamics in as simple and straight-forward a way as possible. It is designed for the student of experimental physics who does not intend to take more advanced graduate courses in theoretical physics. The material consists of notes on the third of a three-semester course given at the California Institute of Technology.

Quantum Mechanics and Path Integrals.  The path integral technique of quantum physics is used in nearly all of modern physics, ranging from astrophysics to condensed matter theory. In this book, the author and developer of path integrals, Richard Feynman, provides us with a unique insight into this theory and its applications in the various fields of physics. The first few chapters present Feynman's view on the fundamental concepts underlying quantum mechanics. From this intuitive view, path integrals are introduced. Later chapters cover more advanced topics like the perturbation method, quantum electrodynamics and the relation of path integrals to statistical mechanics. Most books on quantum mechanics tend to drown the underlying physics in a sea of mathematics. Feynman however, presents his celebrated theory in a clear, concise way, keeping the perfect balance between mathematics and physical insight.

Selected Papers of Richard Feynman (World Scientific Series in 20th Century Physics) by Laurie M Brown (Editor).  These reprinted papers of Feynman (1918-88), Los Alamos scientist and co-winner of the Nobel Prize for physics in 1965, address quantum chemistry, classical and quantum electrodynamics path integrals and operator calculus, liquid helium, the physics of elementary particles, quantum gravity, and computer theory. They have been chosen by the editor for their important contributions. The papers contain pure research, and a few are largely pedagogical, with a number of transcriptions of Feynman's lectures. Also includes a bibliography of Feynman's writings.
