What is a good book, after mastering calculus, that covers all the mathematics a theoretical physicist will ever need?

What are some rigorous theoretical books on mathematics for each branch of it? I have devised a fantastic list of my own and would like to hear your sentiments too. Elementary Algebra: Gelfand's Algebra Gelfand's Functions & Graphs Burnside's Theory of Equations Euler's Analysis of the...

If you don't mind me asking, what is the name of the book by Oakley that you're talking about? I can't find a "Principles of High School Mathematics" by Oakley, but I did find a "Principles of Mathematics" book. Is this what you're talking about...

If you value wealth, if you would like to see yourself owning a big apartment, if you would like to drive a wonderful car, if you would like to live luxuriously, if you would like to wear top-notch clothes, if you would like to see your children live finely in the best schools with the best...

I am glad you answered, mathwonk. Gladder than I have ever been before, since it was originally your suggestion on here that convinced me to buy Euler's Elements of Algebra a week ago. However there is one problem, it does not introduce the concept of a f(x)-type function. I was looking for a...

What is a good book on algebra that is highly theoretical and covers functions, the binomial theorem, sequences/series (basically all algebra topics in college) and if possible, elementary number theory? Most books on high school-college algebra today don't cover theory at all and when they do...
