There is something different about the way the Feyman lectures is written.

It's been years since I have read it, but I remember it explaining how one could derive the change in atmospheric pressure with altitude by just knowing a few properties of the gas.

I don't remember the derivation, and I am not sure I could reproduce it. But it changed how I thought about a lot of physical phenomena.
