I started at Caltech in 1960, the year before Feynman Physics. Before Feynman took over the course, freshman physics was a terrible course that focused for the first two quarters on mechanics problems with a lot of strings and pulleys. I hated it. Feynman once claimed he started Feynman Physics because he couldn’t do those problems. When a friend of mine who tookFeynman Physics in 1962 retired, he talked me into doing Feynman Physics with him and sent me a copy of the mimeographed problem sets from 1962. I had always thought I’d be better at physics if I had Feynman Physics as a freshman. After the first chapter of retiree Feynman Physics, I realized I was never meant to be a physicist. But it was a lot more interesting.
