Textbooks? Real gentlemen read novels, not instruction manuals. How else can we get insight into the human mind? The strength of the written word over visual mediums lies in its absence of "noise", if the author tells us that the curtains are red, there is room for an inquisitive mind to ask: "Why does the author want me to know that?". For a more mature enjoyer of fiction there is no greater treat.

Not a fan of this book. Not practical enough for complete beginners to haskell (it's a lot of simple exercises) and not deep enough for anyone who knows what a functor is.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
People aren't learning Haskell as a 'get shit done' language - it should be about showing off the strong points of the language, which is its concision and new way of thinking. If you know what a functor is before you read it then the book's not for you

This was actually an optional textbook for the very first drawing course I had to take before you can take printmaking or oil painting or whatever. I didn't read it then but later found out some of the stuff I learned in the class that helped me is in the book. The title is really weird, it makes it sound gimmicky, but it's a good book for people who want to learn to draw but don't think they have natural talent.

David Griffith’s Intro to Quantum Mechanics, Intro to Elementary Particles, and Intro to Electrodynamics are ones I always recommend for people wanting to venture beyond classical physics
Khan’s Physics of Radiation Therapy is considered the “bible” in the field, and it does earn that name
Attix’s Introduction to Radiological Physics and Radiation Dosimetry is a great addendum textbook for Khan as well
There’s also a great nuclear physics textbook but I’m having trouble remembering the author on this one

Electrochemical Methods: Fundamentals and Applications by Allen J. Bard (Author), Larry R. Faulkner (Author) is the BEST book on electron chemistry and such imo. Quite physic heavy since it focuses on nuclear forces than act between atoms (Van der waals, dipole-dipoles etc...)
Principles of Chemistry, P. Atkins and Organic Chemistry, Graham Solomons is good for general intro chemistry. Solomons in particular is great for molecular bonding theory.
