reviewed Variational and Extremum Principles in Macrosopic Systems on February 23, 2008 Variational and Extremum Principles in Macrosopic Systems
The best maths book i've ever seen. Perhaps, for some readers it may be too long, but every subject is explained in a very .. hmm... explicit way, which makes it an excellent self-study textbook.
