Thank you for your recommendations! I’m glad you got straight to the point, not like other KZreadrs who take sooo long to get to the point.

Is it okay that instead of reading a book on classical mechanics i can watch Stanford lecutres on classical mechanics by leonard susskind since thats the way i have been studying classical mechnaics up until now

Well I hold the opinion that lectures can never replace books/papers. So, if you want to understand the details, I would recommend going through a book. Moreover, Leonard Susskind's lectures are supposed to give you basic ideas but they aren't designed to go into the meat of the calculations. So, you can watch his lectures for an introduction but afterwards, go through a book for more details. For example, when I was learning GR, I watched his lectures on GR and they were good as an introduction but you can't do long GR calculations after watching his lectures.

Agree, however i resonates most with RHK physics

Sure. Read whatever you resonate with 👍

How is mechanis by Landau after Feynman

Firstly, Feynman's lectures aren't a complete source that is required for a physics undergraduate. They are good for learning the very basics and to get some interesting perspectives on some topics though. Landau and Lifshitz mechnaics is good. If you resonate with it, you should definitely read it. However, I would recommend that you still check out the topics in Goldstein's book so that you are sure that you aren't missing any important topics that are considered standard in the discourse of classcial mechanics.

Also Kardar Stat Mech, Morin Classical Mechanics, Morin Purcell Electrodynamics, Berkeley course all books…

Also for Math Methods Riley Hobson Bence is better for beginners than Arfken.

Well everybody has their preferences. Riley and Hobson is a good book but in my opinion, Arfken, Weber and Harris is like a treasure (but that's just my opinion... we can disagree on this). One area where Riley and Hobson takes a bit of an edge over Arfken, Weber and Harris is tensor analysis. I think Arfken, Weber and Harris should have taken more time with tensor analysis. They hurried through it. Riley and Hobson took their time to explain things in their description of tensor analysis.

@@Phymaths Correct but I learnt all of tensor by watching MathTheBeautiful(Pavel Grinfield) rather than from college classes or any book.

Reif Stat Mech is also good, Barton Zweibich(MIT) has written a quantum text for undergrads that is awesome,if you want to read Indian authors read PB Pal’s Mathematical Structures, quantum mechanics and Stat Mech..Pal is a theorist with Phd from Stony Brook University…..For optics read AK Ghatak( Cornell Univ Phd)….For electronics learn from Video Playlist of ‘Ankit Goyal’..no one will teach you electronics for free like him ,he’s IIT trained electronics engineer…

Awesome
