which is the best book for vector calculus?? i need something complete and not just introductory...

OpenStudy (turingtest):

Leithold=ok, goes from basic calc to multivariable fairly thoroughly Spivak=very thorough, but also very hard reading

OpenStudy (anonymous):

For Vector Calculus I like J. Marsden (CalTech) & A. Tromba (UCSC). But like wolfsy said, if you are trying to conceptualize things, a book on E&M. Feynmann isn't super mathematically intensive. Griffith is a standard undergrad E&M text; some people love it some people hate it. Jackson is a grad text, but a large portion of the book is devoted to learning the math.

OpenStudy (goformit100):

Lalji Prasad's book is the best

thanks @open_study1 i like electrodynamics a lot but i dont like studying one thing over and over so i think i'll go with something more mathematically inclined...i like the sound of Spivak.. stupid question but,@TuringTest is it by a russian author??(i have a lot of faith in russian texts, especially the popular ones)

OpenStudy (turingtest):

not sure @Zarkon has read it; not me though you may ask him more about it

OpenStudy (turingtest):

but yes, it's very well-known

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
