Book suggestion category proposal

+3
−1

I was thinking for a new category called Book suggestion (not only book suggestion either). Usually, most of Science students like to study Science books (their favorite subject) by themselves. Some of them self-study rather than getting to University. And, some of them looks for book suggestion. If professional "students" (Physicist) suggest book than, "we" could get perfect book. So that, we can learn easily also.

Usually, Physics is interesting subject. Most of School and College students fell in love with Physics (:D :P). Some of them start by studying very higher theories but, when they think that they should start from beginning then they starts from Classical Mechanics. And, some people thinks "Should I study Quantum Mechanics/Relativity/String theory now?"

When looking for book suggestion they can add further information either. (Like) I have studied Classical Mechanics,"Should I study Lagrangian now"? I have studied Lagrangian, Hamilton, Relativity, "should I study Quantum Mechanics now?"

"Which xxx is best?" are poor questions for this Q&A site. When "best" can't be quantified, all you really get is a popularity contest. Another problem is when the available choices change over time.

Let's not go there.

Learn from the experience on Photography & Video?

The Photography & Video community has a Gear Recommendation tab. That seems to be a quite similar to the book suggestions idea. So any experience with that one should be valuable input on whether if could work on Physics.

I'm not active on that site, so I can't tell how well it works. The fact that it has only 6 posts might seem to speak against it, but then, the main category also has only 18 posts.
