I was studying for a Physics Masters Entrance Exams (India) and my coaching institute basically suggested me these books:
I actually have regretted buying books without prior research in the past, so I am making sure I do my fair share of research before buying any of these or something better.
The list given by my institute contains these 4 books
1. Waves and Oscillations - Brij Lal and Subrahmanyam
2. Oscillations and Waves - Suresh Garg, C.K Ghosh and Sanjay Gupta
3. Oscillations, Waves and Accoustics - P.K Mittal
4. Vibrations and Waves - A.P French
I was wondering which of these to buy. I want a simple book which can help me understand stuff easily like Introduction to Electrodynamics by DJ Griffiths, I love and adore this book.
The Syllabus I have to cover
Oscillations and Waves Syllabus:
Also, I don't know why, but many books relating to Waves and Oscillations are rated relatively poorly (when compared to other Physics books) on amazon.in.
While generally, famous Physics textbooks get a rating a of 4.5+, many books relative to oscillations and waves have gotten, 4 star ratings. So, I felt this post was somewhat necessary.
PS: I did search for books of Oscillations and Waves on Reddit and on Physicsforums, but I didn't get many results, so I have made a post here.
