Has anyone on here ever used thetoptens.com? Basically, it's a site that let's you create and vote on "Best Of" lists. Given all the "Which book is the best for _?" threads on this forum, I feel like it wouldn't be a bad idea to start some top book lists and collectively pick some top books. Any thoughts?

Here's a few lists that I've made:
http://www.thetoptens.com/dover-books/
http://www.thetoptens.com/quantum-mechanics-textbooks/
http://www.thetoptens.com/best-introductory-physics-textbooks/

Note that I do not own, nor am I affiliated with, thetoptens.com.

Hey djh101. I see that your favourite quantum mechanics book is "Quantum Mechanics: Concepts and Applications" by Zettili.

Might explain why? Btw, It would be nice if you did so in this thread. It has only one reply yet ://
 
Sure. I'm on a tablet at the moment, but I'll see if I can post a nice reply this weekend.
