I'm looking for a good calculus book which has a good balance of both theory and good problems . Some people think that Piskunov would be a good bet . Is there an English version available online , as an e-book ? If so , could someone provide a link ?

Do you have any other suggestions as to which would be the kind of book I'm searching for ?

Either Piskunov or Courant would be a good bet
 
This thread only works as a summary from the original source: List of STEM Masterworks in Physics, Mechanics, Electrodynamics... The original thread got very long and somewhat hard to read so I have compiled the recommendations from that thread in an online (Google Drive) spreadsheet. SUMMARY Permits are granted so you can make comments on the spreadsheet but I'll initially be the only one capable of edition. This is to avoid the possibility of someone deleting everything either by mistake...
Largely what the title says. I'm a retired chemical engineer, but for my own re-education, I'd like to review my college physics courses. Those were more than 50 years ago, and a portion has slipped away from lack of need/use. So...how about recommendations for general (say, 200 or 300 level) physics textbooks? It would really be handy if such a book/books were available as free PDFs (yeah, I know...I'm cheap). Thanks very much.
