I recommend using the books in my list as a reference. So are these more like supplementary texts to her list or you think I should study these ones first and then study from her list if I like? I think she had multiple QM books listen for Graduate studies. Thanks! Did you do all the maths books before physics? Or simultaneously? Everybody is going to quibble with it, but at the end of the day the question is ”does the book work for YOU?” If one of the books doesn’t work for you, ask and you will get suggestions for many alternatives. It’s good enough for the undergraduate stuff. If not, please let me know the books I should go through, starting from a good calculus book I think, to understanding graduate level physics.

So to keep this thread short in case it is not good for this forum, I'll want to know if it is a 'good enough' list. has a famous blog post 'So you want to learn physics?' and I've often seen people disagreeing with particular books but not presenting their own comprehensive lists. While the lessons seem to make sense, the 'proof this and this' leaves me a little stumped as to where I should start from. I went through a third of Kline's calculus and found it doable and enjoyable. I wish there was a definitive list at the top of Google searches but there wasn't. I'm sorry if you get this question often.

However, if you want to seriously learn physics from the scratch, you cannot forget older treatises which have better pedagogy and a lot of thought provoking problems in my opinion.įor introductory mathematics I recommend Analytic Geometry,Differential Calculus, Integral Calculus, Vector Analysis and Differential equations by HB PhillipsĪ small list of Mechanics books to accompany your contemporary texts. Ms.Susan's list of books consist mostly of mainstream texts which are alright for an average student.
