  1. Re:They're All Targeted for Mathematicians on Good Physics Books For a Math PhD Student? · · Score: 1

    In other words, go to your school's Physics department and ask them for graduate level physics books. Physics is applied mathematics. If you want to go one step further, go to your school's Mechanical Engineering department and get their graduate level books. Mechanical engineering is applied physics. The University of Illinois also had a Theoretical and Applied Mechanics department that was similar to mechanical engineering but emphasized the math more heavily. It was recently merged with the mechanical engineering department.

    Probably 8 hours as it can easily split up your day. 8 hours for sleeping, 8 hours for work, 8 hours of your own time... A healthy balance approach.

    8 hours a day 5 days a week is what Henry Ford found maximizes productivity over the long term for auto workers. More than that and you get worker burnout and higher error rates. It's found to be generally applicable across all industries.
