Jim's Review
🐛
Feynman explains quantum electrodynamics — one of the most precise and bizarre theories in physics — using nothing but arrows and common sense. Jim's jaw dropped when he realized how much of the everyday world (mirrors, lenses, colors) is explained by photons doing weird probability dances. It's short, it's brilliant, and it'll change how you see light itself. Four worms — Feynman at his finest.
