To enjoy this book a basic foundation is required in partial differential equations, wave theory, tensors, and Maxwell's equations. This is obviously a small audience. If you have a background in these areas, this book is an enjoyable read. It ties together electromagnetism, special relativity, and tensor math. Susskind's presentation of basic tensor math is way too brief. He does have many excellent teaching points, but if you do not have the basics down he does skip steps. If you do not know some basics of tensor math and manipulation, you are not going to learn it here. If you are interested in this learning this material and do not have that background I would suggest Fleish's "A Student's Guide to Vectors and Tensors, Fleish's "A Student's Guide to Maxwell's Equations", Fleisch's and Kinnaman's "A Student's Guide to Waves".All three books have multiple solved problems on the publisher's website that should give you the background to make this book an easier read.. Bernacchi's "Tensors Made Easy", has had mixed reviews but I found the solved problems very useful. As mentioned by other reviewers, you will need to understand Lagrangians which are covered in the first book in this series. The solved problems for this text are not available on the web. This is a major problem with this publisher. In this day of rampant viruses, you should not have to surf the web to find solved problems. This series is not written as textbooks. Many of us do not have teaching assistants to check our work and help us. If you have the background this book may be useful. If you do not have the background it may be very frustrating.
Leonard Susskind and Art Friedman's Volume III of the Theoretical Minimum is a great geek read for those who want explore how to take basic Maxwellian E&M and Special Relativity to a Lagrangian-tensor packaging. Besides gaining some physical insights and learning about elegant mathematical approaches, this helps set the stage for particle physics and quantum field theory. For example, books such as M.Y. Han’s “From Photons to Light†use this formulation of E&M as a starting point. The tensor notation that is introduced and used to condense both Maxwell’s equations and those of Special Relativity helps provide a smoother connection to a future volume discussing General Relativity.The description of how to apply Lagrangian concepts to the domain of fields provides good insight into how a physicist of Susskind’s stature approaches a problem.Regarding magnetic monopoles in Appendix A, Groucho Marx once commented “That’s the most ridiculous thing I ever heard.â€
If you have tackled graduate level physics texts and found yourself thinking "I really need to shore up the foundations of my understanding before pushing further", the Theoretical Minimum series by Susskind and co-authors is a great place to begin. Susskind is a master at bringing his readers along on the journey, strengthening your math and physics skills along the way. Much of the time I had the nagging feeling that the material was too easy, but what really is happening is Susskind is simply making it seem that way in comparison to other authors. By the time I finished the book --like a smooth ride to a mountaintop --- I realized I had learned a great deal and was now ready to tackle those more advanced texts again. And if you read the entire book, and say the secret word, you might just earn $$ {intentionally cryptic remark requested by author}.
This is the three book in the series I have read. The first book set up a lot of the mathematical machinery used here, namely the Lagrangian and the Hamiltonian along with conservation laws and symmetries.I struggled a bit with the second book on quantum mechanics - have to go back and have another crack at that one.But this one was REALLY good. The setup of the book was so logical and the mathematical development was so well paced that I could feel much greater mathematical sophistication that helped me to anticipate many of the subsequent developments. Now, I will not say that I could erase all the equations and mathematical reasoning segments from the book, and as an exercise, recreate them from memory, calculation, and my own reasoning, but I will say that if you go over the material at a comfortable pace and are willing to look back a chapter or two or three to remind yourself of some key detail, you will be very well rewarded with a view into special relativity, electrodynamics, and classical field theory.Now back to Quantum.I cannot wait for General Relativity to come out. Chapter 11 seemed like almost like a cliffhanger to change gears into gravitational field theory.In your reference frame, take the time to read this book. As for general relativity, when it comes out, You Bet Your Life I will read that one.
