Hello, like everyone else in this group I'm fascinated by physics and
a bit frustrated by popularizations that steer clear of the math.
Without the math, i find i have to take the author's word for things.
I am also deprived of that comfortable and pleasant feeling that comes
from true understanding.
Anyhow as an intro - I'm a comp. sci grad, from way back with a lot of
forgotten undergrad math. I hope to bring it all back and with luck,
go beyond it.
I am thinking of starting a blog that will record my experiences as I
go through the book chapter by chapter. It would highlight my
difficulties and struggles :-). It could incorporate links to
supporting books/videos and websites (some of the one already
mentioned in this group for example). Solutions to some problems would
be wonderful too although this would be a tall order (for me).
I figure if it works right, the blog could be a useful aid for those
who are reading the book as well as a reference for readers yet to
come! What does everyone think?
