Can anyone recommend any good books on Differential Geometry and Topology for a Physicist.
I already have Nakahara's "Geometry, Topology and Physics", which is good but slightly too broad and too advanced.

Fucking learn it from a math book and apply it to whatever you need it for in physics, dumbass.
Seriously, all of this "mathematics for physicists" shit gets on my nerves. I've met 3rd year physics majors who don't understand basic calculus because their 2nd year math requirements are taught by the physics department from books like Boas and Arfken.
>t. Disgruntled math/physics double major

Also, might I add
>muh proofs boo hoo
Fuck these people. Learn how to prove shit so you can learn math correctly.

Try looking at Schutz first, its really basic. Hicks is also much shorter, he covers the physics in the problems.
Henry Long
Topology and modern analysis George Finlay Simmons
Calculus on manifolds spivak
Differential Geometry
Connections, Curvature, and Characteristic Classes loring w. Tu
Functional differential geometry Gerald Jay Sussman

>Differential Geometry and Topology for a Physicist.
How would that be different for a physicist.
You mean dumbed down for retards?

If you want intuition, study it in 2D and 3D:

Daily reminder that the founder of modern mathematics was a physicist.

IIRC Mochizuki is still a mathematician
