Suggestions on cheap books for self-study? Bookdepository.co.uk is having a discount


Hi all,

As the title mentioned, bookdepository.co.uk is having a 10% discount:
http://www.bookdepository.co.uk/spri...offCoupon-2011


I would like to buy some cheap books..mainly for self study (in summer perhaps)
I am leaning to some Dover books..
some backgrounds, I am a Physics major in my second year..
I have learned ODE, Calc 1-3, Linear Algebra and intro physics..

Anyone has any suggestion? like must-have books for physics major..?
I wanted to buy Applied Analysis by Lanczos..but it's out of stock..

Its always best to check the prices on both websites as both have free delivery but sometimes the UK is cheaper, other times the US website is cheaper. Discount works on both

Also if you order from the US (.com) website your order is still shipped from the UK, so delivery time will be the same.

LOL - I just ordered 5 books from there yesterday :-)

I am not sure what your threshold for 'cheap' is, but here are a few from the Math(s) end of things that might interest a Physics major:

Visual Complex Analysis

Understanding Analysis
http://www.bookdepository.com/Unders.../9780387950600

Linear Algebra Done Right
http://www.bookdepository.com/Linear.../9780387982588

Geometrical Vectors
http://www.bookdepository.com/Geomet.../9780226890487

A Book of Abstract Algebra
http://www.bookdepository.com/-Abstr.../9780486474175

(No, these aren't the ones I ordered)

Many Dover books are criminally cheap right now. The Schaum's series is pretty inexpensive, too.

I already have books for Analysis , Linear Algebra and Complex Analysis..

Chicago lectures in Physics seems interesting though
