June 24, 2018Best Physics Text ever - Chapter 1 First halfBeautifully written, it is really a cut above the rest defining Laws as descriptions. You can see now just how big the Higgs Boson is as a discovery. I am a little concerned by the idea in this that space is spatially quantized, but he gets the idea that gauge bosons are quantized. I don't know I am comfortable in calling photons matter, but that goes to my semantic understanding of the term http://lessonpeer.com/drhillteach/Best%20Physics%20Text%20ever%20-%20Chaoter%201%20First%20half.mp3...more37minPlay

June 23, 2018Surprising benefits of learning a little LatinI studied Latin for just two years a school. Surprisingly this has been enough to struggle through some of Newton's Decartes' and Livy's original work that is in Latin. This gives some interesting insights in a behind the scenes style. http://lessonpeer.com/drhillteach/Surprising%20benefits%20of%20learning%20a%20little%20Latin.mp3...more20minPlay
