Is there a thread for must-read books where people share some of the best books they have read? If not, can you start one?
I like reading and I'm sure I'll get some great book recommendations here.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
I am not looking for books in a particular subject. All the threads I saw were for a particular subject - physics, math etc.
The link you provided also deals mainly with physics books. Any generic book thread?
