Hi.
I am looking for physics books of a particular type: concise, and very well regarded. Two examples I found are "Mechanics", by Laundau & Lifshitz; and "Elementary Statistical Physics" by Kittel. Both are around 200 pages and they cover a lot of material.
Unfortunately, I don't have the time to learn physics from large books. So I am looking for short physics books, like these two, that can be read in a relatively short amount of time and that contain all the essentials. I intend to use them as a complement to on line video lectures I want to watch.
So what books would you recommend in this category, especially for more advanced physics subjects?
