Math and physics books from Dover via Google Books (what I find interesting in math and physics, Aug. 2025)

I’ve recently discovered a bunch of math / physics Dover books via Google Books of all things. You can access previews of them based on the link below and also buy them. I like this because I have a tendency to splurge for Dover books only to find my math skills are too weak to make progress. I don’t mind, since I like giving money to Dover, but my bookshelves are too full and this seems like a good compromise. Here’s just some I found good:

  1. Mathematics of Classical and Quantum Physics
  2. Mathematics for Physicists
  3. Mathematical physics
  4. Classical mechanics
  5. Foundations and Fundamental Concepts of Mathematics

Also I found these good links, not Dover or Google Books necessarily, but worth checking out:

  1. Calculus and beginner calculus
  2. History of physics
  3. Principle of least action
  4. Lagrangian physics and why it is useful.

A math lover’s post

I knew that Paris had streets named after politicians and historical figures, but I didn’t know how many Paris streets are named after mathmaticians. Apparently quite a few! Amazing. One more reason to love Paris.

Dover publishers have the best books when it comes to math. If you want to see some of their better ones, see this list.

Good stuff.
