Too bad that modern textboks are usualy split into a problem book and solution one. It's a way to make more money fot the publisher I guess. I realy detracts from the experiencee when going thru a book.

[@user-id3fc8qs7y]

When you have good teacher that knows how to explain without breaking someone's brain, everything is possible. Some people are able to make simple things difficult to understand, while some others do it in opposite way

[@dennisfahey2379]

Feynman told wonderful stories about how his father nurtured his curiosity from a very young age. Every parent knows how insanely curious kids are and how they will repeat activities until they understand. What the educational "factory" system does is structure the joy out of learning. The curiosity gives way to metrics and criticism. The fire is extinguished.

[@Onoma314]

Man, I'd have loved to have seen Feynman's bookshelf

[@55Quirll]

I need Calculus for the Impractical Man

[@juliusfucik4011]

When I was doing my electrodynamics course, I failed the first time, because the book we used was so bad. The teacher was pretty bad too. A typical researcher who was forced to teach as well. Then I got the Lectures in Physics by Feynman. I got an A on the second try. The way Feynman explains stuff in these books is amazingly easy to understand. He does not plaster the pages with formulas just to show how clever he is. He writes a lot of words to explain everything. Lots of examples. I wish I had this book when I was taught Calculus.

[@me_serious_asf]

Ahh thanks a lot for commenting on this. I was asking if you can tell me from which publication did you buy the books from? I really want to know actually. There is this one publisher called “Basic Books” which i think is the original one because its wayyy too expensive…i really cant afford to buy it. But if thats the one then i guess i have no choice.

[@bbasil1312]

Oof, those old, physical calculus textbooks. Bring out so many memories. Mostly fails, but not without triumphs

[@dennisfahey2379]

It's just a "proper" textbook. In the past they assumed a scholar would self-educate and wrote the books as such. The modern textbooks - dominated by a handful of publishers - are designed to sell collateral teaching material and to feed a specific Standardized Test definition of proficiency. It is clear when you compare the fluidity of the cadence of this book to the modularity and voids of a modern, often larger ($$$) textbook.

[@6IGNITION9]

I had a similar experience with George Finlay Simmons' Precalculus Mathematics in a Nutshell. Only 100 pages. Also Ivan Savov's No BS guides. So refreshing.

[@logicaestrex2278]

Now all I need is Feynman's intellect 😂

[@BellaRocko]

True story: The librarian would not let him check out the book at first, saying that it's too advanced for him. So Feynman came back at a later day to check out the book, but this time he told the librarian that it was for his dad!

[@19AGJ86]

Why can't all mathematic books be this simple. The books today have a bunch of side notes, unnecessary graphs, just too much. I'm looking for just straight forward math textbooks. I'll have to pick this one up.

There's all kinds of math books in different styles published these days. Including the style you describe as wanting (but also the styles you describe as despising, you just have to pick carefully).

[@monad99]

thanks for the link in the description

[@joshwilliams7692]

The red one is the second edition. Feynman used the first edition, which is blue and a little harder to come by these days. In high school, he read Advanced Calculus by Woods. I've been wanting to get a copy of that one for years, but it's always too expensive when it shows up on eBay.
