10 Popular Physics Books That You Must Add to Your Bookshelf

Science literature that you should study if you are a physics enthusiast

The list of books that I am going to provide is a selection of some of the most well-known and highly regarded physics books that have been published over the years. These books cover a wide range of topics in physics and are written by some of the most influential and respected figures in the field of physical sciences. I have made this list based on a combination of certain factors, including the impact and significance of the work, the clarity and accessibility of the writing, and the overall quality and reputation of the books.

These books have been widely praised by both experts and lay readers for their ability to make complex ideas understandable and for their contributions to our understanding of the physical world. These books fall under the genre of ‘popular science books’ because they aren’t too technical or mathematical per se (except the Feynman lectures which include undergrad-level basic mathematical concepts, and the Road to Reality by Roger Penrose) and can be understood by anyone with a fundamental working knowledge and understanding of physics and mathematics. Along with presenting you the books, their author, and one quote from each book, I shall also include a link to buy these books. Please be noted that this is not a promotional piece, but my personal recommendation based on my own experience of reading.
