Are there any textbook writers (STEM) whose stylistic writing you're particularly impressed by?
they have about as much style and flavor as wikipedia articles, so no
>>25199804John Haugueland - Artificial Intelligence
i like Fundamentals of Electric Circuits by Alexander and Sadiku
steve skiena is funnier and has a better algorithms book deal with it
no
>>25199804this one's a gem
>>25199804Lewis Carroll wrote math textbooks. I also like Cohen-Tannoudji's Quantum Mechanics.
>>25199804I don’t know if it’s ever been used as a textbook but I like the infectious enthusiasm the author has for his subject: https://interpreterbook.com/
>>25199804Susskind's Theoretical Minimum series is well written.
>>25199995/thread
>>25199804No one in particular but ones that write half memoir styled ones are nice because its like they're talking to you as if you're an old friend while waxing poetic about math or language.
>>25199804we NEED a version of the "this is the fate you chose" copypasta but for people who pursued a STEM degree instead of one in the arts/humanities.
>>25199804Norbert Weiner Cybernetics
>>25199804No and i don't want them to. Good texbooks relay information quickly and precisely. Any stylistic endeavor therein would be a waste of print.
