- I have both Marion (1st editon) and Goldstein (which I bought but
- haven't used officially in a class). The book my prof used was Landau
- and Lifshitz, a very thin book that I like a lot and has helped me
- quite a bit. My instructor used this, telling us that "Goldstein puts
- him to sleep", but near the end of the term covered some stuff from
- the back of Goldstein without telling us...
