Perhaps I don't know enough physics, but I find Nima's lectures a lot more comprehensible than those of most physicists. I'm not aware of any of this generation of physicists who have Feynmann's gift of both accuracy & clarity of exposition. That having been said, I haven't yet had a chance to look at this particular video of Nima's, but I'm looking forward to it. At 12:36 PM 9/19/2013, Warren D Smith wrote:
somebody on the net was complaining that math is hard because you need to prove theorems, physics is hard because your theories have to work, but Nima Arkani-Hamed does neither theorems nor physics that works, so his life is easy. (He got a $3M prize for an example.)
