I remember I've seen here some book recommendations on Classical Mechanics, and when I saw few pages of a particular one from the Amazon it had a TON of problems after each chapter but I somehow forgot to bookmark it... Can someone provide me with the name? Thanks!

For a lot of worked examples and exercises, I have always liked the Schaum's Outline series. There is one for each of Engineering Mechanics: Statics, Engineering Mechanics Dynamics, Fluid mechanics, Fluid Dynamics, and others. They are typically much less expensive than textbooks.

Thread 'Book recommendation after Sakurai Modern Quantum Physics'

TL;DR Summary: Book after Sakurai Modern Quantum Physics I am doing a comprehensive reading of sakurai and I have solved every problem from chapters I finished on my own, I will finish the book within 2 weeks and I want to delve into qft and other particle physics related topics, not from summaries but comprehensive books, I will start a graduate program related to cern in 3 months, I alreadily knew some qft but now I want to do it, hence do a good book with good problems in it first...

Thread 'Blennow to follow up Altland?'

TLDR: is Blennow "Mathematical Methods for Physics and Engineering" a good follow-up to Altland "Mathematics for physicists"? Hello everybody, returning to physics after 30-something years, I felt the need to brush up my maths first. It took me 6 months and I'm currently more than half way through the Altland "Mathematics for physicists" book, covering the math for undergraduate studies at the right level of sophystication, most of which I howewer already knew (being an aerospace engineer)...
