The Theoretical Minimum

What You Need to Know to Start Doing Physics
Apr 02, 2013Michael Jay Witt rated this title 3 out of 5 stars
This book supplements Leonard Susskind's online Classical Mechanics lectures. To find the lectures, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Susskind#The_Theoretical_Minimum -- I would not recommend the book as a stand-alone physics text, but the Lecture and the book together are great. For anyone who is interested, the "Portland Math and Science" meetup group is currently (April 2013) organizing a study group for Classical Mechanics, partially based on Susskind's lectures: http://www.meetup.com/Relativity-Exploration-of-Portland/
