Taking Honor Mechanics class in college this semester and It would be great to get your opinions on advanced textbooks compatible with such a class? I used to like and think that Halliday and Resnick was the best, but I've heard it is not really advanced. What honors physics textbook would you recommend or is the one most used out there?  Again, I'm looking for a very specific type of book, which is an advanced one for honors physics classes in college. A huge list of all possible physics books is definitely not what I'm looking for.
Book recommendations Every once in a while, we get a question asking for a book or other educational reference on a particular topic at a particular level. This is a meta-question that collects all those links together. If you're looking for book recommendations, this is probably the place to start.  All the questions linked below, as well as others which deal with more specialized books, can be found under the tag  (formerly ).  If you have a question to add, please edit it in. However, make sure of a few things first:   The question should be tagged  It should be of the form "What are good books to learn/study [subject] at [level]?" It shouldn't duplicate a topic and level that's already on the list   Related Meta:
Quantum Field Theory from a mathematical point of view I'm a student of mathematics with not much background in physics. I'm interested in learning Quantum field theory from a mathematical point of view.  Are there any good books or other reference material which can help in learning about quantum field theory? What areas of mathematics should I be familiar with before reading about Quantum field theory?
