In summary, the person is looking for science books with lots of pictures, drawings, and diagrams that explain complex topics such as physics, math, and programming. They are not looking for books meant for children, but rather ones that are well-illustrated and easy to understand. They mention examples of books they enjoyed, such as the manga guide to linear algebra and head first programming. They also mention that they have used introductory texts with illustrations, but they may not be in color if they are from a developing country. They apologize for their English and suggest posting their request in a different forum.

I'd try posting this in the General Forum instead of the Sci-Fi forum.
