 This is Gio. Welcome to my channel. Now, one thing I promised everyone that I would do is when I started bringing in some of the books that I have in my collection, I was going to start showing you some of my book collection, specifically some of the math books that I have in my collection. And one thing I've started to do is basically start bringing in some of the boxes of books that I have in storage. And I've brought over about four or five boxes right now. I found two boxes that are specifically, you know, I just wrote down math on it. So I know it's math books. I got a box here of math magazines, and I'm pretty sure I know what's in that one. I'm not sure what's in the two boxes because, storing away, I didn't really categorize them according to which books they were. I just said math. Okay. And I have another box here that's sort of engineering related books and stuff like this. I don't think we'll take a look at that. But what I want to do is I'm going to, we'll see if we can get through all three boxes. Okay. And that way I can start, you know, organizing the books because one thing I've done is I've built up one shelf system here and another shelf system here. So I'm about to do a shift just to, you know, open up some boxes and see what I have and put the books up. Right. And we're going to slowly, as I bring in more boxes of books, I'm going to build up shelving in different locations of the house and start putting some of the books up, right, because they need to be up. Right. So let me show you what I have here. And most of these are going to be specifically math and physics related. Okay. Now I already had some books that just came with me when I did the move here. So let me show you those ones. There's some just general, I guess general physics books and stuff here. But I'll show you what I've, what I usually have leave myself access to if I'm doing a move somewhere because I want that information, right? If it's in a box, you can't access it. Right. So these are the books that sort of come with me because I do use them as reference some more than others, most definitely. Okay. So the first book that I want to show you, you've already seen this book, we did, we put out a video on which we'll call it how to read a textbook. We took a look at Feynman's physics lectures and this is a volume two. Okay. So this has been with me or in the family anyway, since the 1980s or so. And the books that I'm about to show you, by the way, I should mention this, the books I'm about to show you, some of them are mine that I've used through university school or whatever just bought through for references. Some of these, I've inherited and some of them are hand-me-downs. The the books that I have that are lower level in mathematics and physics, those are mine. Okay. Because I went to university, I only got my bachelor's in mathematics and major in geophysics. Right. There's some books here that are pretty high high level mathematics that are PhD level and stuff like this. So some of these books I have there, you know, they found their way to me. And at some point I plan on learning enough mathematics to read a couple of the books that I want to, I want to understand the math that I want to understand. So the higher level mathematics, math books that I'm about to show you, the mathematics is too powerful for me right now. At some point I will hopefully reach that level as well. And there's a bunch of other stuff that I'm going to show you which are engineering stuff related. And those are sort of hand-me-downs through the family that's found their way to me. Okay. So the first book, Feynman, Lectures on Physics, Volume 2. Okay great book really. Someday I plan on getting all, I think there's three volumes. I plan on tracking these down. Okay. And I think this is the fourth printing from 1966. I think it first came out in 1960. Now first came out in 1964. And this is the fourth printing from 1966. Okay. And then this is, oops, this is Richard Feynman playing his bongos or congos or whatever it's called. Right. So this is one book that, you know, stays with me always. Great, that's one. Now this one is Calculus by Howard Anton, third edition. This is the math book I've referenced the most. And a few years ago, I think 2007, 2007, many people were asking me, you know, if I had any book recommendations and I picked some physics and math books. And actually I recommended five books. There was a comic book in there as well. But this was the one that I showed. I've referenced this book more than any other math book. It's fantastic. Okay. Another book that I remember, here, let me show you this one as well. This is the linear algebra book by Gilbert Strand. So linear algebra and its applications. And we took a look at this, when we took a look at how to read a textbook as well. Right. So this was the second book and there was a third book in there with Chris Hedge's book, Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt. So this is a good linear book. But I think I mentioned that during that video that there was a linear book that I used to learn linear algebra. And I ended up finding it. And it's Algebra and Vector Geometry by Staten and Fryer. Okay. This is the book. This is their names up here. This is the book that I learned linear algebra from. And I learned linear algebra before actually taking linear algebra courses. And this is the book that taught it to me. Okay. I had to know it as a prerequisite for a different course that I took, but I never had it, which was a big no-no. If you're going to university or college for mathematics, prerequisites are a must. So if you're looking at taking math courses, if they have a prerequisite for a course, for sure make sure you know that it's a technique that you need that's in the language that you need to be able to do what the next level is. Right. For me, I didn't have it. I sort of had to learn linear algebra on my own. This is the book I used. And it's a fantastic book, really. It was easy to read, easy to understand. And it was very good. Okay. It was very good. Algebra and Vector Geometry with determinants and matrices. Another calculus book that I've referenced that I use as well is Calculus, a first course, Earl W. Swakłowski. And I've used this one as well. This one sort of sometimes travels with me if the other one's not around. And I do use this as a reference. A couple of probability books that I've used a lot, but I don't think they're the best, really. I use these because I had to when I took a course and these are the books that I learned from. And it wasn't the best, but I love the explanations in this. I remember getting more into the reasons why. The examples, the details in the back. When they were dealing with the problem, then the mathematics of it. Okay. So, J.G. Colt Fletcher, Probability and Statistical Inference, Volume 1. This is probability second edition, I guess. And this is same thing, Volume 2, Statistical Inference. Hopefully, I get that right. As far as physics books go, this is the one I've referenced the most. I've used the most and I like this book. This is Surway. Physics for scientists and engineers with modern physics second edition. Oh, it was a good book. I've learned a lot of physics from that book. This is one of the books that sort of found its way to me. Statistics and mechanics of materials. R. C. Hebbler. I mentioned before I did a little bit of, well not a little bit, I did a fair bit of construction in my life. I've just been around it. Graphic Guide to Frame Construction. Good book for reference. Okay. It gives you a pretty good idea of how things are put together. And this is, I guess, engineering, but it's all mathematics, right? It's all mathematics. And it's details for builders and designers. Rob Thalon. And it's got good images and drawings and references. With a good math book or a good physics book, you always want to have something that has amazing graphics. Okay. You want to have amazing graphics. Let me show you two books that come with me everywhere. Okay. These ones, these are two of the books that I plan on kicking my mathematics to a level that I can read these two books. Okay. And there's a couple other ones as well, but read Solomon Codes and their applications. I want to know about Solomon Codes theory, right? So this book came out. This is not a huge print round. These things are very, very low print round. Solomon Codes applications. This one came out. It would have been 93, 94. So I can't find the date on this. Anyway, it's early 1990s, for sure. Okay. And it's got different chapters written about different things. And the other one is application of finite fields by Alfred J. Mendez. Alfred J. Mendez is the editor and there's a whole bunch of different publishers on there. And I haven't even cracked this one open. It's brand new. And this is again from the early 1990s. And when they all crack it open and read it and understand it, try to anyway, right? I just have to learn the mathematics behind this. So those are the books that are sort of come with me no matter where I go. Let's crack open one of these boxes. And all I do, these boxes, if you're doing moving books and stuff like this, if you go to liquor stores, they have boxes that are pretty good for books, but they're not specifically set for books, right? So a lot of these boxes for that, my last move that these things went to storage, I went to a bookstore, a large bookstore chain and I grabbed their boxes and they were perfect. Okay. Now, just a heads up, because these things were going to storage and I wanted to protect it, I took Dimacious Earth and I put it around the boxes. I put the stuff in plastic bags and put a Dimacious Earth around it to protect the books from bugs and stuff like this. Okay. So I'm going to go really slow opening these up because Dimacious Earth, you don't want to breathe in. You want to make sure it's settled down, right? So I'm going to be very careful bringing these things out. Oh, that's correct. Let me show you the box. This is the box. They're pretty heavy. So you can go a little bit lighter, smaller. One thing I did storing these boxes, take a look. I took a sack like this, like a, like just old shirt torn up and I put rice in it. I believe this is rice. I put rice in this so it would absorb the moisture. Okay. Rice and baking powder or baking soda I can't, I can't remember. So it's got rice and I think this is baking soda to absorb moisture and stuff like this. So I read this up online when I was packing these things. I believe so anyway. So I'm going to put these guys as I open it up. Actually, let's just leave in the box in the corner there. Now, let me show you some of these books. This is some of the other books I have. It's got mainly math books I believe, but I do have some physical fitness books and stuff like this. And this is The Barrel, Bruce Rondel, Mr. Universe, The Barrel Way to Physical Fitness. Forward by Stan on Museum. And this is 1970. Okay, first edition. It's really good condition actually. So let's put this guy here. What else we got? Yeah, this is another book I used a lot. So this is Fundamentals of Differential Equations. Second edition, R. Kent and Nagel, Edward B. SAF. Certain books you get attached to when you're when you're studying, when you're learning something new, right? So I won't show you these ones right now. No, what do this is? I'm just gonna stick with the math books, okay? This one, I'm gonna show you the type of the old shorts in there, right? So physical fitness books that have made their way to me. Okay, I'll show you these guys, since I pulled this one out as well. We got Terence McKenna's, The Sacred Mushroom Seeker, right? I flipped through this, I haven't read it all. And Tales of the Shaman's Apprentice, non-math book I guess. On the box actually, I've written here Math Plus, right? So actually this one, this is a gem. This one is a gem. Pearls, which is built pearls, keys to the inner universe, world's best built man. Check this out. Built pearls key to the inner universe. So this is volume one. Exercises, drawings, right? It's not just a mind, you have to keep sharp, right? You have to keep the body. The body sharp as well, right? So this is a great book, great book. There is another, so here's some of the math books. So the top layer was sort of paperbacks to a certain degree. A couple of hard covers. International series in pure and applied mathematics, principles of mathematical analysis. This book is a third edition, Rundle, MC Crow Hill, Walter Rudin, Principles of International Series in Pure and Applied Mathematics. Just love it, above me. To become more powerful in mathematics, to be able to do this one. Holland, Mathematical Library, The Theory of Error Correcting Codes by F. M. McWilliams and N. J. A. Sloane. This is, this is above me, but I'd like to learn some of the stuff with coding and stuff like this. Einstein and the Ether, Ludwig Kostrow, skimmed through some simulation of communication systems. Michael J. Jürchen, Philip Balaban and K. Sam. Haven't read it, had to get it to put it in the collection. Some day just flip through it. Certain things must be read, right? Just so you can't, you don't just rely on interpretations. Jacobson, Basic Algebra 1. It's a hard cover. I love these kinds of books. And these books. Nathan Jacobson, Yale University. Monoids and Groups, Introduction, Concepts from Set Theory, The Integers, Rings, Chapter 2, Chapter 3. Modules over Principle, Ideal, Domains, Chapter 4. Galois Theory of Equations, Chapter 5. Real polynomial equations and inequalities, Chapter 6. Matrix Vector Spaces and the Classical Groups, Chapter 7. Algebra's Overfield, Over F-field, Chapter 8. Lattice's and Boolean Algebra. Shulin Daniel J. Costello Jr. Air Control Coding Fundamentals and Applications. Coding for Reliable Digital Transmission Storage, Introduction to Algebra. And keep in mind some of the stuff. It was huge at the late 1980s, early 1990s, mid 1990s and stuff. Secure communication, air coding. I knew some people that were doing some research in that. So it was interesting seeing them, their perspective on things. How the concern for people was in large part secure communication, online, coding, more rapid transfer information, because we're limited. Streaming just became available in the early 2000s. 68,000 Assembly Language Programming by Jerry Kane, Doc Hawkins and Lance Leventhal. What a book. It's 68,000 Assembly Language Programming by Jerry Kane. We're getting towards the end of this box. There's two here. Interpretation of Electron Defraction Patterns. KW Andrews, DJ Dyson, SR Kiwin. This is actually from a library. What was the sale on? A library sale. What do we got here? Data Communication Fundamentals of Baseland Transmissions, edited by L. E. Franks, 1974 Copyrights. That's one box. Let me make sure there's nothing stagged. Let's put this box here. Crack open another box. And this one says math books only. So it might just be math books. It doesn't say math book plus. Right. So I guess my coding was math book plusments, math book plus other things. Got math books, right? So let's take a look at this. Digital Control System Analysis and Design. And this is by Charles L. Phillips, H. Troy Nagel, Jr. Foundations of Electronic Magnetic Theory, Ritz Milford, Second Edition. I'll show you this on it. Arithmetic of finite fields, Charles Small, pure and applied mathematics. Big years before you can learn mathematics to do this, maybe. LP, you're all, yeah. Digital Picture Processing.

There are people, mathematicians, that specialize in their fields, right? So if you're into going into a field, you're reading a lot of books from a specific individual. So we've got some graduate texts. Graduate texts in mathematics. Frank W. Warner. Foundations of Differential Manifolds and Lie Groups. Graduate texts in mathematics. Thomas W. Hungryfold Algebra. Surge Lang Complex Analysis. J. H. Van Lent. Introduction to Coding Theory. J. P. Surrey. Linear Representations and Finite Groups of Finite Groups. Another bag of rice and keep the moisture out. Test texts in mathematics. V. S. Varadagian. Lie Groups lie algebras and their representations. Ireland. I believe it's Kenneth Ireland and Michael Rosen. A Classical Introduction to Modern Number Theory. A. N. Sherev. Probability. Let me read this one. It's hard finding good probability books. Really. I haven't read this one yet. The basics are not. Paul R. Holmos Measure Theory. Yeah, this probability book won't be starting with the normal F3 version stuff. This is graduate texts, right? So it's going to be higher level, most likely. Let's take a look. Elementary probability theory. Mathematical Foundations of Probability. Some classical models of distribution. Probabilistic model of experiment with a finite number of outcomes. Oh, that's not bad. Libraries. Conversion of probability measures. Sequence of some independent random variables. Yeah, sounds good. Sounds good. And I have one box here that's magazine. So let me organize it. Bring it over, okay? This is... There's math books and magazines in here, okay? Or subscription journals, okay? So Mathematical Foundations of Information Theory. A. I. Kalenshin. B. Davis. Integral Transformations. Transformations and their applications. Second edition. Huff, Huffcroft, Alvin. The design analysis of computer algorithms. Models of computation algorithms and their complexity. Design of efficient algorithms. Sorting and order statistics. Data structures for set manipulation problems. Algorithms of graphs. So this is... There might be a couple more books at the bottom, but these are the magazine or the journals collection that I have. And these guys I love. Book series, right? Mathematical Monthly. American Mathematical Monthly. This is August, September 1987. And it goes on. This is October 1986. And these are articles, journals that came into publication. Scientific papers I guess. 87. Volume 93. Number 5. May 1986. So how many of these do I got? I'm not sure what the numbering sequence is. What I have or what not. So I got volume 93. These are volume 94. There's a whole bunch here. There's another set. This is volume 93. Here's another set. These will look amazing up on top of those shelves, right? Whatever you want. You sort of bring them down and see what you can find. Here's three more. Check this out. Here's the 93. So 93 and 94 were red. And here's again the American Mathematical Monthly. But the 95 started turning green. I'm not sure what the later years turned out to be about these guys. I triple E transactions on communication at these guys. And this is June 1988. Volume 36. Number 4. And there's number 9. Number something. Volume 37. This is 98. 99. So there's a set of these guys here. A whole bunch of I triple E transactions on information theory from July. So those are... This is on communication. And this one is information theory. So on communication I have a bunch. You know, it was not this probably like eight or nine. These ones I got a whole bunch. So start off, I believe 91 were starting off. Going up to 89, 89, 93, 91, 90. So 88 to 93 so far. All right. Here's the other sack of horizon. I think soda I believe in 92. Information theory. 88, 90. So it spans basically from 1988 to 1993 which makes sense. Some of these things, the publications, the papers. And then we're just to read this here. November 1989. Volume 35. Number 6. A fast algorithm for computing distance spectrum of convolution codes. Achievability proof of some multi-user channel coding theorems using backward decoding and stuff like that. So those are three boxes. I hope you liked. I have some books here that I love. What we'll do is, if I get the chance to show you guys more videos of other boxes coming in, I will make them. I know there's a whole bunch of books that I know I have that weren't in here that I definitely want up on the walls. I'm definitely going to go through those boxes. That's it for now. I guess I'll see you guys in the next video.
