My Math Book Collection (Top Row of a Bookshelf)

In this video I go over the top row of one of my bookshelves. I was honestly surprised to see how many math books were here. Many of these books I had actually forgotten I had. I will be reviewing more books in the future:)

Instead of listing the individual links to each the books here, just check out my book review playlist. I have tons of reviews on many of the books in this video and many more.

I love this! This is like a drug of addiction for mathematics bibliophiles.

Not sure who’s nerdier, the guy who makes these videos or me for binge watching these videos. Amazing! Keep up the great works. I get giddy when I recognized books I have as well.

The first book you reviewed, the "Advanced Calculus" by Angus Taylor. Taylor was a famous long time professor at UCLA. The professor that I got my MA in math under at Cal State got his PhD under Taylor from UCLA. His thesis topic was "Operator Theory".

I am a high school student studying analysis, I got to learn a lot from your collection thank you and keep posting videos.

I love these book videos! Sometimes I have a book in my library and I completely forget about it until I see it on your channel, it's fun to rediscover and review something you forgot you had.

Great collection. Thank you for sharing it with your viewers.

Fantastic! I truly appreciate your channel! All the best to you!

I studied using the Complex Analysis text by Ablowitz-Fokas in 2002 at college, I applied to a Complex Analysis course then I remember studying a lot of contour integrals from that textbook. It was so amusing! :)

I love your books. I have some book recommendations for you - Linear Systems and Signals by Lathi, The Fourier Transform and Its Applications by Bracewell. Both use modern notation and are well written at an intermediate level. If your trying to escape the standard class mathematics classes you could consider spectral analysis books. Spectral analysis could be described as regression analysis of time series using statistics.

I use to hate math, and till recently I am loving it, never thought that relationship would happen hahahah. Love the Pauling book by a true scientist. :)

I see that quantum text on your bookshelf 😬. The greatest math book to me personally has to be mathematical methods for physics and engineering by K. F Riley. It covers just about every applied math topic from single/multi variable calculus, to tensors, PDE’s, ODE’s, complex variables, and more. The book is over 1300 pages, it’s insane. You should check it out.

I am glad you are coming to books on each shelf. That book on Introduction to Quantum Mechanics looks interesting. Other books on same shelf are interesting too. I hope you will do shelf to shelf of books.

Bad news, I am a book hoarder and I have 4 or 5 homebuilt bookcases. My parents despair when they see books coming in the post. They quiz how much money I spend on them and they would have arguments with me for days. Most books on shelves are on art, comics, literature, creative writing, Gregg shorthand, programming languages, etc. I have only 3 or 4 books on maths. Too many books at home, I now buy mostly digital books.
My eyesight not so good, I will soon have got to buy myself a bean bag for sitting in front of a new large TV screen (not mine) and read ebooks from Open Library, Internet Archive, Amazon Cloud, etc.
This week I have been watching your videos on a new large TV screen and it was crazy experience. The other day, I have watched all your playlist of over 50 videos on books, all on a big TV screen.

that always feels good when you can sit in waiting room and read a advanced math book!

[Z-Diode]

I vote for the Pauling & Wilson, Quantummechanics. 💪

Please do a detailed review of solutions manual to buck’s book.
(it would be great if you flip every single page of this book and pause for two seconds on each page)
I need this solutions book as I’m using buck’s book for self study, this book will be my compass to navigate through buck’s advanced calculus.

[jake_runs_the_world]

We need a complete archive off all the lovely math books you have

[souvikghosh]

This is really addictive.. I am also a mathematics student of undergraduate level.. I also love buying different books... Stay healthy.. Love from india.

Wow, I only have one of your books: Baby Rudin. I didn't recognize any of the other authors, except two who I have other books by. First is Angus Taylor. I have his introductory calculus book and his book on functions and integration. Also I have Linus Pauling's book on the Chemical Bond. I wonder if I tend to buy older books where as you tend to buy ones published more recently. For example I have books by Hille and by Carathéodory on complex variables. Both are two volume sets published by Chelsea which has been absorbed by the AMS. One classic I have I bought at a used book store is: Théorie des Fonctions Elliptiques par MM. Briot et Bouquet, 2nd ed. 1875. The word holomorphe (holomorphic) was first used in this book. Previously, in their first edition, they used the french word for synectic which dates back to Cauchy. In Theory of Complex Variables by Reinhold Remmert there is a nice discussion of the history of the various words used for holomorphic, such as: regular, synectic, analytic, et cetera, and why the various words were used. I'm going to have to look out for the books you have. They may explain things better.

I am waiting to see you do next row of books for reviews. 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 🙏🏻

[mannydossantos]

Thanks, Prof, the book info is highly appreciated. I’m building a library of my own, mostly made up with your recommendations. How about you writing a book too, so that it can sit proudly in everyone’s libraries?
