AI Thread Summary
For those seeking a calculus or real analysis book focused on problem-solving rather than theory, Piskunov's "Calculus" is recommended for beginners due to its extensive exercises, although they may not be particularly challenging. The other mentioned titles, Berman's and Maron's mathematical analysis books, are less familiar to users in the discussion, indicating a lack of consensus on their effectiveness. The conversation highlights the importance of practical exercises for newcomers to calculus, particularly for those who have limited experience, such as less than six months with integration.

If this is your first exposure to calculus, Piskunov has a LOT of exercises. I wouldn't call them challenging by any means, but for a beginner it would be useful. I haven't heard of the other books until now.

Yeah I am relatively new to Calculus; hasnt been 6 months with Integration.
 

Thread '"WHAT IS A QUANTUM FIELD THEORY?" A First Introduction for Mathematicians'

The book is fascinating. If your education includes a typical math degree curriculum, with Lebesgue integration, functional analysis, etc, it teaches QFT with only a passing acquaintance of ordinary QM you would get at HS. However, I would read Lenny Susskind's book on QM first. Purchased a copy straight away, but it will not arrive until the end of December; however, Scribd has a PDF I am now studying. The first part introduces distribution theory (and other related concepts), which...

Thread 'Books with a more theoretical approach to turbulence and DNS'

I've gone through the Standard turbulence textbooks such as Pope's Turbulent Flows and Wilcox' Turbulent modelling for CFD which mostly Covers RANS and the closure models. I want to jump more into DNS but most of the work i've been able to come across is too "practical" and not much explanation of the theory behind it. I wonder if there is a book that takes a theoretical approach to Turbulence starting from the full Navier Stokes Equations and developing from there, instead of jumping from...
