Good Physics books from Springer at the Undergad level?

[MidgetDwarf]

Springer has a 50% currently till the end of December. I know plenty of good math textbooks from Springer, but what are some good physics books? Particularly at the undergraduate level.

Most of my Springer books are specialist, but here are some suggestions:

Chen Plasma Physics
Courant And Friedrichs Supersonic Flows and Shock Waves
Greiner’s books
I‘ve heard good things about Schwabl’s two quantum books.
I haven’t seen it, but Adler came out with a new General Relativity book.

Schwabl's QT books as well as Adler's GR book (which is explicitly written for undergraduates, and I think it fulfills this promise nicely, and it includes all the necessary tensor calculus). Of course I also warmly recommend Greiner's textbook series. My favorite volumes are the one on "Field Quantization" and the volume on quantum mechanics and symmetries.

 

[haushofer]

Travis Norsen's Foundations of QM.

I have found these two by V. Balakrishnan useful: Mathematical Physics and Elements of Nonequilibrium Statistical Mechanics.

In case you want an advanced special relativity book (definitely not undergraduate)

Is this book accessible to someone who has never studied SR in depth but who has studied the other major branches (QM,SM,CM,EM) of physics at the grad level (and who has studied math at the level of e.g. Baby Rudin and Axler)? I came across it and it looks great but want to make sure it's not too much.

If you studied also differential geometry at this level, the book should be accessible.

Mathematical Physics by S. Hassani
It almost includes all the mathematics you would meet in Physics.
