Mathematical Physics for Undergrad

[welatiger]

Hello;

I wonder which one of the following textbooks is suitable for mathematical physics undergrad course:
1:) Mathematical Methods: For Students of Physics and Related Fields by "Sadri Hassani".
2:) Mathematical Methods in the Physical Sciences by "Mary L. Boas".

Thank you in Advance

Depends on the level of the class. Hassani is more advanced.

No, it's not. Both are suitable for an undergrad course.. I think you may be referring to this one

I would recommend both of these textbooks as they are both recognized as excellent resources for mathematical physics. However, it ultimately depends on the specific needs and preferences of the individual student. "Mathematical Methods" by Sadri Hassani is a comprehensive and well-structured textbook that covers a wide range of mathematical techniques used in physics. It also includes many practical examples and exercises for students to apply their knowledge. On the other hand, "Mathematical Methods in the Physical Sciences" by Mary L. Boas is known for its clear and concise explanations and its focus on the application of mathematical concepts to physical problems. Ultimately, I would suggest reviewing the contents of both textbooks and choosing the one that aligns best with your learning style and course requirements.
