    Other What's the best highschool biology book?

    What's a good comprehensive book for a high school student on biology that has never studied the subject before? (Campbell seems to be college/university-level so I can't touch that)

    Calculus Bernoulli's book on integral calculus

    Me and Vinay are Indian and India is perfectly fine with no such problems, it is infact turning into a very modern society. The situation is much worse in Pakistan. It used to be a very beautiful country, but that all changed when in the 70s, the president allowed Afghani refugees to live in...

    Calculus Bernoulli's book on integral calculus

    You may not be able to understand Quantum Mechanics, nobody can. It is perhaps impossible, if not ridiculously difficult, to understand it completely. The likes of Einstein, Feynman, Dirac, Schroedinger, Pauli, De Broglie and Planck were themselves perplexed by Quantum Mechanics, it also led...

    Calculus Bernoulli's book on integral calculus

I already told you on Genofond that Bernoulli's calculus is available in English and Latin, but only the Latin version is digitized and I linked you to it on the forum. In short; there is no English version of it for you to read. Learning Latin will take a...

    Undergrad Why the speed of light is constant?

    I understand and revere the fact that you're a veteran mentor around here, and I am sure you have acquired an admirable image during this time, but I must say that this answer is perhaps the worst explanation for the constancy of the speed of light ever given. It's just very sad, it shows how...

    Prob/Stats A book on highschool-level probability and statistics

    No. Like I said, I am just a high school student. It should require a knowledge of only some elementary algebra and other things that a high school student is expected to know. Also, I must add that the book must start out with the basics and later proceed onto the advanced topics. By the...

    Prob/Stats A book on highschool-level probability and statistics

    What is a fantastic book on probability&statistics that covers all the probability&statistics a student in high school ever need? It should cover the basics, and also the intermediate topics. Specifically, it must cover frequency distributions and whatnot. Please lend me your suggestions.
