Other Best physics books for preparing for the IPHO?

AI Thread Summary
Preparation for the International Physics Olympiad (IPHO) requires a solid understanding of physics concepts and problem-solving skills. A recommended resource is the document from the British Physics Olympiad, which covers essential theory needed for the competition. Additionally, a link to the Art of Problem Solving community provides a comprehensive list of books and resources tailored for IPHO preparation. Engaging with these materials will enhance theoretical knowledge and practical problem-solving abilities necessary for success in the competition.

So I have decided to participate in the IPHO in the upcoming years. I searched online but I don't seem to be getting any help on how I should prepare and what books I need to refer to.

So please, could you guide me on which books I should refer to for IPHO?

Thread 'List of STEM Masterworks: THE SUMMARY'

This thread only works as a summary from the original source: List of STEM Masterworks in Physics, Mechanics, Electrodynamics... The original thread got very long and somewhat hard to read so I have compiled the recommendations from that thread in an online (Google Drive) spreadsheet. SUMMARY Permits are granted so you can make comments on the spreadsheet but I'll initially be the only one capable of edition. This is to avoid the possibility of someone deleting everything either by mistake...

Thread 'Hassani's books on Mathematical Physics/Methods'

By looking around, it seems like Dr. Hassani's books are great for studying "mathematical methods for the physicist/engineer." One is for the beginner physicist [Mathematical Methods: For Students of Physics and Related Fields] and the other is [Mathematical Physics: A Modern Introduction to Its Foundations] for the advanced undergraduate / grad student. I'm a sophomore undergrad and I have taken up the standard calculus sequence (~3sems) and ODEs. I want to self study ahead in mathematics...
