Yes yes it is! It seems I insisted searching with quotes or something
so, because I was unable to find it. In the mean time I found my copy,
but for some days I as pondering to go to the Mont-Blanc to get another
one.

Incidentally, these lectures can be used in union with Dyson's
contemporary explanations in the Physical Review, to get a grasp of the
understanding of the old theory of renormalisation. Dyson was a very
relevant figure here, understanding the relations between Dirac and
Schwinger approaches. He worked with Schwinger and drove across USA
with Feynmann, having the almost unique opportunity to ponder about
their ideas, and then he readily explained it to the public.

Yeah, these lectures are nice, but why the hell, didn't they put them as
a pdf file there to download and print. That would make those lectures
much more easy to read. :-((

I couldn't even use wget to download all the jpgs, with which I could
use my miniscript to create a pdf my own. So I guess there is some
copyright issue which forbids it to make it awailable for print?
