A great collection of books relating to Mechanics, Electrodynamics, Quantum Mechanics, Statistical/Thermal Physics, Mathematical Methods, String Theory, and more.
From the introduction:
“So… You want to teach yourself about general relativity or particle theory, but you could never really find a suitable book to learn from. Or maybe you just hate the textbook in your intermediate physics class and want a better alternative. Well, here’s a list of books I’ve come across in my wanderings through Crerar Library. I’ve tried to indicate roughly what the book covers and at what level, and I’ve tried to point out where certain books are dated or otherwise pathological. I also indicate when a book sucks.
I’m afraid you’ll find that this list is heavily biased towards theory, and general relativy and particle theory in particular. That’s partially because you can learn something about theory by reading a book and doing problems, but largely because I’m interested in mathematical physics. I’ll try to get non-theory dorks to add their voices in the future. Meanwhile, future string theorists, enjoy yourselves!”
