Recommended books for a physics undergrad

Emi_Garrido · Nov 8, 2023

Hello! I'm new here. I'm on my first year of physics at the UNAM, in Mexico, and I want to now which books and resources would you recommend me to 'survive' in the career, not just in physics, but also in the mathematical formalism for subjects such as geometry, abstract algebra, calculus, programming, etc. I've studied physics and a bit of calculus before and I'm in an intermediate kinda level.

Hello @Emi_Garrido , and

##\qquad##!

Here at PF we actively encourage self-support.
So: what did you find in this forum so far ? Anything you like better than other stuff ?

And: what kind of physicist do you want to be ? Theoretician

?

At the bottom of this page you will find a list of links "Suggested for:" your subject question. Maybe start by reading through a few of those to see some of the typical suggestions.

What Physics and Math textbooks are you using now in university?
