>The term Advanced Calculus has come to mean different things over the course of the past century. During the first half of the 20th century, Advanced Calculus courses consisted of what's now commonly found in Multivariable and Vector Calculus possibly with some Differential Equations topics thrown in. Lately, it has been fashionable to call very watered down "Real Analysis" courses Advanced Calculus even though it's not advanced nor calculus and goes no deeper into analysis than a good rigorous calculus book does. Here Advanced Calculus means what the name implies, advanced topics in calculus (and tools from analysis) typically not found in the usual calculus sequence but still very useful for solving difficult problems in science, engineering, and mathematics.

Could be literally anything. Post the syllabus.

I need to learn some laser physics. It doesn't need to be super deep or extensive so a good chapter or two in a broader book would be fine for now. Any suggestions?

What are good books for learning elementary geometry and probabilities/statistics? (I'd like to keep it as abstract as possible, so no "for engineers" edition pls)

modern:
Geometry by Brannan, Esplen, and Gray
Geometric Methods and Applications: For Computer Science and Engineering by Gallier
Geometry: A Comprehensive Course (Dover Books on Mathematics) by Pedoe

gimme neuro/computational/cogneuro books boys

Grimmet and Stirzaker for probability.

funny how the same site that has resulted in me downloading 5 new textbooks in the past week is the same one that will prevent me from finishing any of them. FUCK IM NEVER GOING TO MAKE IT

I need a textbook for statics

Beer, Johnston, Mazurek & Eisenberg's book on statics is pretty decent. Published by McGraw-Hill.

Good luck on your studies!

Any textbooks on probability and statistics for computer scientists/engineers that isn't the error-ridden one by Sheldon Ross?
