Recommended books in mathematics and physics
There are certain books in the fields of mathematics and
physics that I have found to be particularly good in the way of
exposition, explanation, providing insight and understanding
into basic ideas and concepts. For the sake of those of my
readers who are interested in these fields I present some of
them. I have put an asterisk in front of those that I consider
especially outstanding.
