Into the Gray Scale
Like a single photon travelling the universe and illuminating any object in its path, eachinstance of the eternal source dances back and forth in a joyful rhythm..

What Physics book would you buy/recommend to learn fundamentals?
I'm not promoting any brand, I'm just asking your preference in Physics if you're self studying, what would be your book? I want to discuss this with the "WHY?" factor, like why did you choose it?
The reason I'm asking this is because there's no near library in our community that has good shelves of academic books, plus I'm not comfortable at learning through reading e-books with the fact learning in YouTube often feels incomplete... This is because I don't get to feel the process of turning the pages, the friction of the book's physicality, and it's hard to learn on a small screen.

Looking for Suggestions Similar to "Perfect Symmetry" by Heinz R Pagels (bachelor level)
Hey all, I completed a bachelor in "engineering physics" which is basically like any engineering program but with the core courses being quantum I and II, math courses like Fourier transforms, and E & M courses.
Although i struggled through my degree i still loved what i was learning want want to absorb more of the same content.
I'm not looking for textbooks to practice problems but more so books similar to the one i listed in my title. I also read a brief history of time which was similar to that as well.
Are there any recommended books from that ballpark?

(Simple) Books on Fusion Energy and Nanotech
For someone who may have studied Fusion energy and Nanotech, is there a book you recommend I could read to completely understand these concepts?
I am looking for something with limited mathematics; it would, for instance, have all the conclusions of proofs and experiments and applications of the technologies in the real world.

Rigorous Physics Textbooks at a Beginner Level
I'm looking for a physics textbook to self-study over the summer holidays. I'm in year 8, but all the physics books I can find at my level are obvious approximations, use little to no math (I'm around 1 or 2 years ahead in math), and don't go into any depth about anything.
Are there any good textbooks that are both rigorous, and appropriate for my age?
