I always struggle with using books beneficially, as you've said. I struggle a lot dealing with the difficult and technical stuff. Can you make a video on how to read technical books efficiently?
Absolutely! If fact if I have time at the beginning of my semester, I usually spend about 20 minutes showing my students how to use thier textbooks in various ways. I'll do that on stream at some point and then upload it. 👍

@@PhysicsOH well i just passed high school. And Im thinking of starting learn undergrad. Phy by own. What should I start first. I need someone for guidance in what should be the sequence in studying phy. Hoping for ur help
The two Intro-physics books that I recommend are Randall Knight's and Halliday & Resnick. They are great at building up your foundations. Physics you'll find, has a very linear progression. So you'll get a good scope of how that feels as you work through an introductory physics book. Remember to stay inspired though. The math (while necessary) can be tedious.
@@PhysicsOH sorry sir. I think I wrongly wrote high school. Idk the exact meaning of that word. But I'm asking for undergrad. Resnick Halliday is up to grd. 12

Thank you, I'm a physics major. About to start and this is really inspiring.
Ill be using both Griffiths & Taylor next semester. Excited!

@@PhysicsOH great! Thank you!
Did you uploaded that video?
I really liked Pathria for stat mech. I liked Callen for thermodynamics.
You have excellent books.
Your office looks hella nice
how did you make it so far without Peskin & Schroeder? :oo
Hi I do thank you very much, which one of these books will need when doing my Ph.D. in astrophysics let know, thank you.
Statistical mechanics. I was just amazed. its by an indian author. A huge misconceptions wiped away

Sir, which book is good for qft for a beginner and what are the prerequisites?
"QFT for the gifted amateur" by Lancaster and Blundell. You'll probably need up to Quantum Mechanics at least a first course in QM.
Kids these days. ;)
