Classical Found a great resource on Theoretical Mechanics (free)

AI Thread Summary
The discussion highlights Sergei Winitzki's "Classical Mechanics: A Minimal Standard Course" as an excellent resource for those looking to refresh their knowledge of classical mechanics, although it may not be beneficial for complete beginners. The course includes a valuable differential equations refresher, enhancing its utility for learners. Additionally, Winitzki offers a variety of other educational materials on his website, covering advanced topics such as general relativity and quantum gravity. Notably, the course content is partially written in Mathematica, which may appeal to those familiar with the software.

Classical mechanics: a minimal standard course by Sergei Winitzki. It is not probably going to help you if you already did not know the subject but is a great refresher nonetheless. He also includes a differential equations refresher that I found invaluable.

Looks like he has a ton of other resources available on his site: https://sites.google.com/site/winitzki/ as well including advanced GR and quantum gravity.

(Sorry, I couldn't resist).
BTW, it appears it's (half) written in Mathematica.

Hi, I have notice that Ashcroft, Mermin and Wei worked at a revised edition of the original solid state physics book (here). The book, however, seems to be never available. I have also read that the reason is related to some disputes related to copyright. Do you have any further information about it? Did you have the opportunity to get your hands on this revised edition? I am really curious about it, also considering that I am planning to buy the book in the near future... Thanks!
This is part 2 of my thread Collection of Free Online Math Books and Lecture Notes Here, we will consider physics and mathematical methods for physics resources. Now, this is a work in progress. Please feel free comment regarding items you want to be included, or if a link is broken etc. Note: I will not post links to other collections, each link will point you to a single item. :book:📚📒 [FONT=trebuchet ms]Introductory college/university physics College Physics, Openstax...
