Books recommendations - one of my favourite topics on HN, both useful and fun. It has a drawback: unread titles are accumulating on my shelves - I still have a hope that I’ll read them eventually, or my children.
This time it is about STEM subjects. Can you please share your favourite books / textbook, you read recently, some hidden gems you want to share? Thanks!
Another math title that someone recommended on HN, I am digging into now: ”Foundations of Applied Mathematics” https://foundations-of-applied-mathematics.github.io/ It is going to be 4 volumes, Volume 1 is available, Volume 2 arrives soon. It is a useful book (soon books) on maths for specialists in AI and computational areas.
Last title, not released yet: “Topology through Inquiry” https://bookstore.ams.org/text-58/ Sure, there is the famous Munkres book as a great intro into Topology, but this one may be interesting to learn maths using inquiry-based learning approach.
