Thanks for this list. What is the difference between Gelfand and Axler for Pre-Calculus?
Carter Nelson
I've only read Gelfand, but Axler is usually said to be far inferior. Also Gelfand has problems that really make you think so I think it's GOAT
Pre-Calculus: Numbers and Geometry by Stillwell, What is Mathematics by Courant Calculus I-IV: Apostol Linear Algebra: Hoffman and Kunze or Valenza Abstract Algebra: Artin or Dummit & Foote Real Anal: Tao or Rudin (I've heard Zorach is also good)
David Adams
John?
yeah for real lol
a better version of langs is oakleys "Principles of Mathematics", even axlers precalc is muhc better.

>Tao It's just one big book of "left as an exercise" there are like 5 complete proofs in entire book

pick up Abbott for anal. Its a super quick and easy read. if you can't get through it, i would recommend CS or engineering
