Title: A Math Physics Gem!
Product review: I got this little (relative to other math physics treatises) book about eight (8) years ago. Some years later i took the course with Sadri Hassani himself, who also has an excellent book on math physics (excellent teacher, too, by the way). The latter is a more modern and exhaustive text. Menzel's presentation is more selective and classical.Very clear, succint, enjoyable, logically organized. Intense at places, but the subject itself is complex. Topics are what you'd expect from a book of that era (Part IV on relativity is amazingly well-presented). One of these books that partially explains the good, solid, grounded mathematical grasp of physicists of generations past.And talk about affordable. For the money, not bad company at all. A true gem. Highly recommended.
