2025-04-22
Professor David Tong's renowned lecture notes have been transformed into a comprehensive textbook series published by Cambridge University Press. These books expand upon the original notes, offering richer content, clearer explanations, and even correct spellings (Schwarzschild!). They're also affordably priced. Four volumes are currently available, covering a vast swathe of undergraduate and graduate curricula. The series has garnered rave reviews from leading physicists, praised as a modern equivalent to Landau and Lifshitz's classic work.
