    • Kimmo Alm aka "Sysop" from AnT has been spamming us for YEARS now, and has recently stepped it up. This shit has got to fucking stop.
    As promised, here are all of the e-mails he has sent me over the years (and my responses).

    One of Kimmo's ex-moderators posted hundreds of PMs. They are absolutely hilarious/terrifying.

    Hey /sci/, what are some good math books? I'm looking at various topics, Advanced Euclidean Geometry, Abstract Algebra, Topology, etc etc. Also, if you have any subjects that you think I'd enjoy can you recommend a good book on it?

    In return, an awesome wallpaper.

    How much do you know about higher level math?

    Intro:
    Calculus by M. Spivak
    Algebra by Artin
    Linear Algebra by Hoffman/Kunze

    More Advanced:
    Spivak wrote a series on differential geometry
    Topology - Munkres
    Abstract Algebra - Dummit & Foote

    Two of my favorite math books are "Linear Algebra Done Right" by Sheldon Axler and "Classic Set Theory" by Derek Goldrei. Also, I'm currently 4 chapters into "Algebra" by Mac Lane and Birkhoff and it's phenomenal, though I can't promise the entire book is this good.

    Calc I, Calc II, Calc III, Differential Equations, and Linear Algebra. Thanks for the suggestions btw

    Since you haven't taken an intro real analysis class, I recommend Calculus - Spivak to start with. I also suggest you stay away from the advanced ones I posted. Er... I'm assuming you're serious about learning math. Otherwise... I dunno.

    Oh, in addition to Mac Lane and Birkhoff, my first algebra textbook "Abstract Algebra" by Beachy and Blair was also pretty good and very easy to learn from. Beachy and Blair takes a number-theoretic approach to the subject though, which I find a little dry, while Mac Lane and Birkhoff take a category-theoretic approach (and while I can't say I know a lot of category theory, what I have read of it is absolutely fascinating to me)
