I was recently recommended this book and told it was a standard textbook at an upper undergraduate level or lower graduate level. Well that's certainly above my level, but specifically what would be the prerequisites?
I've no formal math training but self taught calculus at a level somewhere below multivariable. I've previously gone through some basic textbooks on classical mechanics and special relativity. My current math studies are ongoing with a Calculus book by Michael Spivak and a Linear Algebra book by Sheldon Axler. I'm not setting any speedrun records through either, and I'd rather start going straight to the physics and learning the math as it becomes relevant.
