Math Books
I am getting into Physics and need to brush up on my Math as it's been a few years since Highschool. Though it'll be a few months till I can get into College(unless I goto the Air Force instead) I want to have what I can learned and progressing further. Plus I wanna do cool things I can't do without this knowledge
So I wanna start from nearly the beginning with Geometry or Algebra and brush up on all the things I haven't used in a long while. I just don't know of any good sources to use, plus I figure someone here might know better sources for a future physicist. BTW I just bought a Kindle, can't wait for it to arrive on the 13th! My first eBook reader, got it almost solely for this purpose. |

For Euclid's Elements you might prefer Joyce's Java version:

There are many versions of Euclid's Elements floating around, as it is to be expected from a famous public domain work. Wikipedia links to a few more.

Thank you guys.
If anyone has read any particularly good books on Math in general, especially Algebra based, and enjoyed it I'd like to know about them as well. |
