| Feb 19, 2010 at 21:05 | comment | added | Ian Durham | There are good ones - even great ones - out there. You just have to look hard for them (see my answer below for examples). One of the problems is that it is very difficult to strike the right balance between mathematical rigor and conceptual (i.e. physical) understanding, particularly when writing. | |

| Nov 5, 2009 at 1:24 | comment | added | Michael Hoffman | I've had that problem with physics books as well. Idk why they're so... unmathematical... and even not great at helping people get an intuition for the subject!! | |
